Left: Evening Dress
Center: Walking Dress
Right: Court Dress
Left: Riding Dress
Center: Walking Dress with Spencer
Right: Carriage Dress
Left: Woman in Spencer.
Center: Summer Walking Dresses. The long sleeves of these summer walking dresses seem odd. However the low cut of the walking dress to the left surely cooled the lady down a bit! The seven rows of puffed rouleaux on the print dress to the left draw attention to the hem. The lady on the right has three rows of pleats on her hem and matching trim about the shoulders of the dress. Her hat has a high crown.
Right: Women's "Garrick," or caped overcoat.
Dresses from Wiener Modenzeitung
Left: Redingote, 1817. This redingote is heavily trimmed in the military style mimicking "the epaulets and the Hungarian passementerie from the uniforms of the dashing hussars" (Kessler 46).
Right: Ball Dress, 1817. This ball dress is heavily trimmed with green satin petals and satin roses. Lace forms the collar of the dress and decorates the gloves. More satin roses are worn in the hair.
