Regency Era Fashions - Ackermann's Repository 1824

Today our Regency time travels for fashion will take us to the year 1824 and oh what an assortment of fashions we have for this year.  The trends continue with the lowering and snugger form-fitting bodice and fuller skirt bottoms as we have seen for the past few years.  Then is October we see see two mourning fashions; however this time it is not due to a death in the British Royal Family but for the French King Louise XVIII.  I found it interesting that the British Court was ordered to go into a short period of mourning for the French king and that many in the British higher ranks were expected  to follow along.  I will post the fashion article showing this mandate after posting all the fashion plates, so I hope you take a look at it as well.


This is my pick of the 1824 Ackermann's Repository Fashion Plates
As always, it is difficult for me to choose my pick of the fashions for any one year.
I was drawn to this fashion plate due to the interesting composition.  
Not only is the dress and ladies face charming but the scene in itself 
was too unusual to be passed over.

I hope you have fun looking at and choosing a favorite of your own.

Enjoy!

**********************

As promised here is the October 1824 fashion article giving some information
about the British court ordered mourning for the King of France's death.

I just get a thrill out of seeing the phraseology used during this time period.
