Summary edit
Description1812-neoclassical-Young-Ladies-at-Home.png |
"Young Ladies at Home", an idealized classicized engraving of a Regency domestic interior by Henry Moses (probably originally made in 1812, published by 1823). Note that even in 1812, the pure neo-classical influence on real-world women's fashions was already somewhat on the wane. Despite the idealization, the depiction of the second woman from the left is accurate to 1812 in showing a back-buttoning dress with fullness gathered at the back (to make the dress look narrow from the front, while still allowing freedom of movement, since slits were not then used for that purpose). For the depictions of ancient Greek high-belted women's clothing styles which influenced this illustration (and also strongly influenced late 1790s Parisian fashion), see Image:Greek-womens-attire-Regency-Empire-influence-hypsizonos.gif . |
