The picture above is from Ackermann's Repository of the Arts and it occupies an honored position on the wall of my office, part of my collection of Regency era fashion prints. Here is the description of the gown:
Morning Dress from August 1813 Ackermann's Repository of Arts. A petticoat of jaconot or cambric muslin; with a Cossack coat, or three-quartered pelisse, of lemon-coloured sarsnet, with vandyke Spanish border of a deeper shade. Full sleeves, confined at the waist with a broad elastic gold bracelet; confined, also, at the bottom of the waist, with a ribband en suite. Foundling cap of lace, with full double border in front, confined under the chin with a ribband the colour of the pelisse, and tied on one side: a bunch of variegated carnations placed on the left side. Gloves and Roman slippers of lemon-coloured kid. ________________________________________________________________
