Empire, regency, hungarian enlightement era outfits

I admit I didn’t like the “regency” style.
I didn’t even think of ever making things like that.

For my most recent jewelry set project, I did a lot of research, collecting photos and other imagery.

And that’s when I realized that the “empire-regency” era created the most wonderful jewelry creations.
Sophisticated works of art. Diamonds, amethyst (my favorite gem), topazes, turquoise ...
And the cameos and micromosaics that have been taken over from antiquity!

And meanwhile I saw the clothes. They shine from gold and silver embroidery, colorful flower patterns.
Lightweight muselins, moire silks, pastel colors. In contrast with them the deep shades of velvet.

There was no escape, I make to do something.  :D

I experimented a lot with different meshes.
They’re all very good, but somehow they don’t give back exactly that weightless, soft beauty that “attracted” me to the subject.  :thinking:

Cupcakeyy solved my problem again.

The first part, from the women’s wardrobe, was made for the mesh she made.
Faithfully to my habit, it is historically inspired and realistic clothes.

I hope you like it.  :)

A random discovery. I think it was made for one of the movies.)

"Regency Yellow Dresses"
(This dress has already been "processed" by Lidiqnata for her own regency net.
I really like it because of its color and simplicity.
That's why I made my own version.)



Last not least - Hungarian dresses

Elsewhere, "regency", "empire", or "Napoleonic" is the "age of the Enlightenment" in the history of Hungary.
It was then that the Hungarian nobles discovered their own homeland. Before the era, the country lived under feudal conditions.
Our nobility lived abroad, wasted money, and many did not even know where Hungary was.
It perfectly describes this situation in the XIX. One of the novels of the greatest Hungarian writer of the 19th century, Mór Jókai, "A Hungarian Nabob".

A Hungarian Nabob - novel by Mór Jókai

Not too many women’s clothes have survived from this era. In our museums I found a single garment that was arguably made in the early 19th century.
Our national outfit did not fit the regency cut line, so it was not popular. They wore clothes brought from abroad.

The former owner of the only dress is unknown. Therefore, I borrowed her name from the protagonist of the novel linked above. Fanny is a charming young lady whose life path has always fascinated her.

"Fanny Mayer"



The other clothes were created by my imagination, they didn’t exist in reality.
I took the embroidery of the blue bodice dresses from a Rococo embroidery pattern.

"Regency Blue White Embroidery - 3 Version"



"Enlightenment Hungarian Red Lilly"
