I am researching Regency riding habits so that I can make my own. The
Regency era was one of the few historical periods that featured empire
style lines rather than the wasp-waisted fashions of other periods--a
distinct advantage when one does not have a waistline so much as an
equator. I thought you might enjoy the following fashion plate from
Vernet's Journal des Dames et des Modes, 1805, that illustrates what the
well dressed femme does with her baby.
