Book Description
The distinctive style of the Regency period is a source of endless fascination for fashion academics and historians, living historians, re-enactors and costume designers for stage and screen. Author and fashion historian Cassidy Percoco has delved into little-known museum hoards to create a stunning collection of 26 garments, many with clear provenance tied to a specific location, which have never before been published and never – or very rarely – displayed. Most of the garments have an aspect in their construction that has not been previously documented, from a style of skirt trim to the method of gown closure. This practical guide begins with a general history of the early 19th-century women's dress. This is followed by 26 patterns of gowns, spencers, chemises, and corsets, each with an illustration of the finished piece and description of its construction. This must-have guide is an essential reference for anyone interested in the fashions or the history of the period, or for anyone wishing to recreate their own beautiful Regency clothing.

Book Description
The Georgian and Regency period was a time of extremes in clothing, from the heights of the extravagant and decorative headdresses to the widths of the panniers. These garments were supported by a wide range of padding, boning, frills and flounces to create shape and texture. This essential book will guide you through the exciting fashions of the time. Suitable for experts and novices alike, it is filled with practical projects ranging from grand gowns to dainty bonnets, all presented with clarity and insight. There are ten detailed patterns, dating from 1710 to 1820 with five suggested variations to show how the patterns can be adapted; eight patterns for contemporary undergarments and seven patterns for accessories. Step-by-step instructions and photographs show how to construct the patterns and lavish photographs illustrate the finished designs. With general advice on the period, the role women played in it and the fashions of the day, this book will be of great interest to stage and screen designers, museums and heritage sites, costume players, re-enactors and design students. Lavishly illustated with 309 colour images and step-by-step instructions to show how to construct the patterns.

Book Description
Perfect for anyone who loves fashion, history or design, or a mixture of all three in one. This second volume of the Regency Dress Fashion Coloring Book is composed of 33 actual fashion plates drawn during the Regency Era (early 1800s) in England and have been transformed into grayscale coloring pages that will inspire fashionistas as well as people who love to color intricate designs. Many of the pages were adapted from the pages of Ackermann's Repository of Arts, which was a British periodical published from 1809 to 1829. These are drawings that actual women in the Regency period would have browsed to be inspired for their actual wardrobe to be ordered from their modiste (tailor/seamstress). Escape to the world of Regency England and have fun and relax and enjoy the fashions of the period! Pages are printed on one side only. Includes pictures of carriage dresses, morning dresses, walking dresses, full dresses and evening and ball dresses
