EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to the Regency era of 1815, specifically in the bustling streets of Westmoreland. The image features a group of fashionable men, all dressed in the height of Regency style. They don elegant top hats, adorned with ribbons and feathers, atop their heads. Their attire includes frock coats, cut-away coats, and breeches, all in various shades of muted colors. Some men wear striped trousers, while others opt for lace-up shoes. Among them stands out Townshend, the Bow Street Runner, who seems less fashion-forward than his peers. He carries an umbrella, possibly a practical accessory for the unpredictable English weather. Townshend's attire is more functional, consisting of a plain frock coat and trousers, and lace-up boots instead of fashionable Hessian boots or Wellingtons. This photograph offers a glimpse into the sartorial trends of the time, providing valuable insights into the fashionable attire of Regency-era men. The intricate details of their costumes, from the stripes on their trousers to the lace on their shoes, showcase the meticulous attention to detail that was expected during this era. The image also offers a contrast between the fashionable elite and the practical, working-class individuals like Townshend, emphasizing the social hierarchy of the time. Overall, this photograph print is a captivating reminder of the rich history and fashionable trends of the Regency era.
