Fashion Prints - Susana Ellis Author
Regency Fashion
One thing that became glaringly obvious to me as I went through all twenty years of fashion descriptions is that there is no clear delineation between categories of dress. A carriage dress can also be called a walking dress or promenade dress. In fact, sometimes the title on the print is Walking Dress
while the description is titled Carriage Dress
or Promenade Dress.
The same is true of evening dresses and full-dresses, which leads me to conclude that an evening dress can be made a full-dress with the addition of lavish accoutrements, such as evening gloves, elaborate head-dress, jewelry, fan, reticule, feathers, boas, shawls, and scarves. Morning dresses are nearly always gowns to be worn at home, although I have seen prints labeled Morning Carriage Dress.
Frankly, it seems to me that a morning dress can become a promenade/walking dress with the addition of a pelisse or mantle and bonnet. And if you get into a carriage, it's a carriage dress. Simple!
Undressed
refers to gowns worn during the day, whether in the home or outside of it. Half-Dress
refers to daytime wear that might also be worn for informal evening affairs, such as dinner parties or opera excursions. Afternoon Dress
is similar, rather like glorified morning dresses.
Evening and ball dresses generally have lower necklines, are made of more exclusive materials and embellishments.
It truly boggles the mind to consider how costly it would be to launch a young lady into London society, as she would require a wide variety of gowns of all types, as well as shoes, boots, half-boots, gloves, stockings, undergarments, bonnets, shawls, muffs, parasols, fans, dominos, spencers, cloaks, pelisses, reticules, jewelry, ribbons, handkerchiefs, perfumes, creams, powders, etc. And that doesn't include pocket money, dancing and music lessons, theater and lending library subscriptions, ices at Gunter’s, and whatever other incidentals enter into the picture.
