Regency Spencer Jacket and Skirt Set - 19th Century Green Striped Cotton Walking Dress - Jane Austen Era Historical Promenade Costume
This refined women's costume is a historical reconstruction of an original early 19th-century promenade ensemble. The outfit is crafted from lightweight 100% cotton in a delicate green shade with a classic fine white stripe pattern, while the distinct crinkle texture of the fabric lends the material a noble look and practical wearability.
The ensemble consists of two independent pieces: an elegant cropped jacket (spencer) and a petticoat-style skirt with shoulder straps. The spencer features a canonical cut with an empire waist, long sleeves gathered at the shoulder, and a deep, wrap-style V-neckline, while the back is decorated with an authentic rounded peplum and decorative buttons. A natural cotton lining inside the jacket guarantees excellent shape retention and wearing comfort. The skirt features gathers at the back and is secured with a button and straps, while the front split bodice of the spencer adjusts easily to the figure using hidden ties. The skirt itself is sewn in a single layer without a lining; therefore, to recreate a historically accurate silhouette, it is recommended to wear period-correct Empire-style undergarments beneath the costume.
This modest, practical outfit is the perfect choice for creating a harmonious daytime look suitable for walks, outdoor outings, picnics, and historical festivals. Upon request, the costume can be custom-made in a different color from the available palette. Please note that the ivory lace chemisette shown in the photograph is for styling demonstration purposes only to showcase a complete daytime look and is not included in the price of the set.
