High Change in Bond Street, 1796: A Glimpse into the Fashionable World of 1790s London This print, titled "High Change in Bond Street, 1796," offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of fashionable society during the late 18th century in London. The image, featuring two elegantly dressed men and a mother and her daughter, is a testament to the extravagant and often satirical fashions of the era. The two men, dressed in high-waisted jackets and long cravats, gaze intently at the women, their expressions a mix of admiration and amusement. The fashion for men during this period favored a tall, lean silhouette, with jackets cut short at the front to accentuate the waist and long tails in the back. The cravats, tied in elaborate knots, were a sign of wealth and status. The woman, with an air of regal elegance, wears a long, flowing dress with a fitted bodice and a voluminous skirt. Her headpiece, adorned with a terrifically tall feather, adds a touch of extravagance and opulence to her ensemble. The fashion for women during this period favored a more feminine silhouette, with an emphasis on voluminous skirts and elaborate headpieces. The print, with its satirical and caricatured style, offers a humorous take on the fashionable world of 1790s London. The tall feather on the woman's headpiece, for instance, is likely a nod to the excessive and often absurd heights that fashionable women's headpieces reached during this period. The location of the print, Bond Street, was a popular destination for the fashionable elite of London. High Change, a section of Bond Street known for its luxury shops and tea rooms, was the place to be seen and to be seen in the latest fashions. This print, with its intriguing glimpse into the world of 1790s fashion, offers a captivating window into the past and a reminder of the enduring allure of fashion history.
