Typical Garments

of the

Eighteenth Century!

We didn’t really know what to call this page – all of the options were so very wordy but we persisted – the need for this page is great! There are some classic and distinct, yet differing garments in the 18th century and we thought it would be a useful idea to not only list them, but to research their history, their progression through the century and the key paintings and garments that dictate our understanding of them.

Please find below (this page is a work in Progress at the mo – please be patient) a list of study pages for each of the various garments.
