A series of twenty-nine designs of modern costume
A series of twenty-nine line-engraved plates of early nineteenth-century fashionable dress, designed and engraved by Henry Moses and published in London by E. and C. M'Lean in 1823. Its pictures show Regency interiors with women in high-waisted, classical drapery and men in tailored coats, set among neoclassical furniture and candelabra. A designer could take from them the Empire-line silhouettes, the flowing drapery, and the restrained outline style of the period.
