Step inside the wardrobe of the Regency age.
Elegance at the Empire Line is a richly illustrated visual encyclopaedia of British fashion from 1795 to 1830—the world of Jane Austen, the Prince Regent and Beau Brummell. Moving from the skin outward, it explains shifts, stays and petticoats; morning, walking and ball gowns; Spencers, pelisses and Kashmir shawls; men's tailoring, cravats and boots; children's clothing; hair, jewellery, accessories, textiles and the work of the makers behind every finished look.
More than a gallery of beautiful outfits, this accessible reference shows how class, climate, war, print culture, global trade and labour shaped what people wore. Clear dating clues, visual details, a myth-busting section, glossary, bibliography and index make it useful for fashion-history readers, costume designers, writers, artists, reenactors and anyone captivated by the age of Austen.
