Every year has it's ups and downs and 1825 Regency England was no different.
The down side of the year was the Stock Market crash which started with the
Bank of England due to speculative investments in South America.
The financial crisis caused the closing of 6 London Banks and 60 country banks.
The year did end on an up-note, with the completion of the first public railroad in England,
using steam locomotives. The Stockton-Darlington line was only 25 miles long;
however it was the start of the new Steam Age which later change the face of England
as it moves from the Late Regency into the Victorian period.
This still will not happen for another dozen years so; for now we will continue to enjoy
the Regency fashions of Ackermann's Repository with the beautiful dresses of 1825.

| My personal pick of the 1825 Ackermann's Repository fashion plates |
I loved the ribbon lacing, trims and color of this ball gown.
Can't you just picture how this skirt would swoosh as she glides across a ball room?
