Evening dress, American, c. 1820

The MET Museum

"The puffing is a rare intricate feature executed completely by hand and shows the typical decoration locations of this period, with shoulder and hem details. The one surviving long sleeve indicates the dress could be worn with or without sleeves to suit the occasion and the weather."

Crowleys version of my Regency portraits! :p

I like to think that Aziraphale keeps this tucked away somewhere, maybe he likes to look at it when he’s missing a certain demon 👀

In the early century wigs for men were long and flowing, but come the mid century hair tied back, often with curls covering the ears, became the trend. Styles became shorter and tighter as time progressed, until long hair completely went out of style by the end of the century. CC links and reference images under the cut.

You know what absolutely fucks about Austen? Being some little old ladies companion. I just can imagine me and my grandmother waltzing the countryside, chatting shit, I read to her due to her bad eye sight and play the harpsichord or something. People ask when I will marry and my grandmother beats them off with a stick because I'm Her Companion and will not leave her for some Man.

Some of the surviving clothes and personal belongings of Lord Byron (1788 - 1824)
