EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning image captures the elegance and sophistication of Regency-era fashion, featuring a woman dressed in the latest walking attire of 1805, as depicted in this beautiful print from Mary Evans Prints Online. The outfit consists of a white muslin gown, which was a popular choice for daytime wear during this period due to its breathability and lightweight fabric. The gown is accompanied by a lace-edged brown pelisse, a versatile outerwear piece that could be worn both indoors and outdoors. The pelisse fastens with elegant gold clasps, adding an air of luxury to the ensemble. Accessories play a significant role in completing the look of this Regency-era woman. She carries a fur muff, a necessary addition to keep warm against the chill, and a quizzing glass, a fashionable accessory used for observing and flirting. The Spanish hat adorned with plumes and a ruff collar add a touch of exotic flair to the outfit, while her ruddy cheeks suggest a lively and active lifestyle. The London walking dress, as this outfit is known, reflects the trend towards comfort and practicality in women's fashion during the Regency era. The ability to move freely and gracefully while wearing these elegant garments was highly prized, making the walking dress a symbol of both style and functionality. This print offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of the past, transporting us back to the Regency era and its enduring allure.
