EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the Regency era with this stunning image of a well-dressed gentleman from the 1820s, as depicted in this beautiful print from Mary Evans Picture Library. The man's outfit is a fine example of the fashionable attire of the time, with a red plush manteau cloak featuring a green lining, black pumps, pantaloons that button at the ankle, stockings, a waistcoat, and a cut-away coat with a roll collar and a white cravat. The man's top hat is adorned with a cockade, and he wears gaiters, spatterdashes, and plush gaiters to complete his elegant ensemble. The manteau, a type of cloak that was popular during the Regency period, was often made of luxurious fabrics such as velvet, satin, or plush, and was worn over the shoulders and fastened with a brooch or a clasp. The green lining adds a pop of color and contrasts beautifully with the rich red exterior. The pantaloons, which were worn instead of breeches, were often made of wool or cotton and were fitted at the waist and loose at the thighs, with buttons or hooks securing them at the ankle. The gentleman's waistcoat, or vest, is made of a lighter fabric and is worn over a white shirt. The cut-away coat, also known as a tailcoat, is a formal coat with a long, straight skirt and a lapel that is cut away to reveal the waistcoat. The roll collar, a high collar that rolls over the shirt collar, was a popular neckwear style during the Regency era. The white cravat, or neckcloth, is worn around the neck and is secured with a cravat pin. This print offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and style of the Regency era, a time of elegance, opulence, and refinement. Whether you're a history buff, a fashion enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the past, this image is sure to captivate and inspire you.
