EDITORS COMMENTS
Fashion Plate (Walking Dress), 1818," is a captivating example of Regency-era fashion from the 19th century. Created by renowned British publisher and printmaker Rudolph Ackermann, this artwork showcases the elegant and refined style of women's apparel during this period. The image features a fashionable woman dressed in an empire gown, characterized by its high waistline and full, voluminous skirt. She wears a pelisse, a short, fitted jacket, over the gown, which is adorned with intricate embroidery and a shawl draped around her shoulders. The empire line, a defining feature of the Regency era, accentuates the female figure and creates a sleek, elongated silhouette. The woman's ensemble is completed with a bonnet adorned with a large bow and a handbag slung over her arm. Her boots, or carriage boots, are high and laced up, providing both style and functionality. The boots are adorned with decorative elements, such as buckles and roses, adding to the overall elegance of the outfit. This fashion plate, which was likely used as inspiration for women in Britain and beyond, provides a fascinating glimpse into the fashion trends of the Regency era. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the engraving make it a valuable piece of historic art and a testament to the enduring appeal of fashion history."
