Regency-inspired coords

Jfash (mostly lolita-relared) that draws inspiration from 1790s-1820s fashion.

This is a common area of influence for ouji, but due to the flowing silhouette for women's wear, it can be difficult to emulate in lolita. Thus, while Regency-like coords may use lolita brands such as Victorian Maiden, their status as lolita might be debated. Discuss if you have knowledge about this unique point between Rococo/Georgian and Victorian fashion!

also, Moitie has released many items that could be used in Regency-style coords. more than i expected.

also also, this thread is dedicated to the anon who asked me to start a Regency thread. i would like to save a Victorian one for later, because it will likely be a two-part monster of a dump

I really want to start a thread nitpicking, but I don't see either of these dresses as looking very lolita. I know that they're both brands that make lolita clothing, but those dresses lack the detail and sillouheutte of lolita.

Can you help me see it, OP? I don't hate the idea.

i do not think those are lolita, and not everything i share will be lolita. the beginning is more some brands that have made Regency-style dresses that could be used in a coord that incorporates elements of lolita style. whether or not it would count as such, i do not know.

most of my collection is ouji so the lolita side is not something i can confidently discuss. still, to see the spirit of Regency (as a reaction against OTT Rococo) in lolita coords would be neat.

i expect these 2 lolita examples are very nitpick worthy and invite heated debate as to whether or not they fit in the category that contains both "lolita" and "Regency"!

Some of these, like this one, look more Victorian-ish to me, but I'm not super familiar with Regency men's fashion. If you don't mind, could you explain what the common elements of a regency ouji coord would be? It would be a big help!

pic related is 1810s-ish Regency, and is somewhat close in silhouette and key elements to the coord in question

for me, the jacket style is more Georgian, and the tight trousers more Georgian/Regency and fairly un-Victorian, and the top hat excludes it from Georgian. the high and wide collar is also un-Victorian. but since it is ouji and not reenactment, there is a mishmash of elements and the overall effect is fantastical, which makes it difficult to pin down.

nitpick away, nobody really does "Regency inspired" ouji or lolita so these are all ambiguous and worth discussing

>Why are these coords classified as Regency-influenced?
key Regency elements for menswear include breeches rather than trousers (in the earlier years), fitted tailcoat jackets with sometimes a cropped front, cravats or jabots (not ties or bowties), high ("popped") collars, tall hats or top hats as a change from Georgian tricorns, etc.

few of these coords actually aim to represent the Regency era, exceptig a few such as >>9407098. teasing out elements of Regency-era fashion and distinguishing them from Georgian or Victorian is important, i think, because of the widespread idea that most of ouji is "dressing like a little Victorian boy" despite all evidence to the contrary. in the Baroque/Rococo thread, the 18thC as a major influence on ouji fashion was discussed. before getting into a Victorian thread, it seemed necessary to me to establish a set of post-Rococo, pre-Victorian "look" to coords.

input and alternate examples greatly appreciated, especially for lolita or other jfash, which is lacking representation in this thread.
>>
>>9407122
weird, I've been on here for at least 6 months. Ah well

Also, I don't think that a full regency inspired outfit would work for ouji and agree with you about them being worth discussed, because ouji is a massive mix of eras together, although I mostly see either young boys clothing from those eras or King George and Pirate 1700s inspo for ouji. I love me some late 1700's naval uniforms

>ouji is a massive mix of eras together
which is fitting because lolita is also. but it is easier to identify Rococo elements in a lolita coord, even if the lolita dress is half the size as well as half the length of a real Rococo dress and has an entirely different neckline, because female Rococo fashion is well-known enough that riffs on it are recognizable.

however, Atelier Boz, one of the most-worn brands for ouji, routinely releases Regency-style jackets, but they are not recognized as such, because images of Regency menswear is rare. additionally, the general 18thC-inspired ouji items get interpreted just as "pirate ouji" because people associate tricorns and breeches with pirates, forgetting they were common menswear for generations.

i agree that there are, just as in lolita, definite influences from children's clothes, especially Victorian, but that only tells a small portion of the story.

>pic related, Boz jacket that reads as Regency-derived to me; a modern take to be sure, but not a far stretch

semi-related but offtopic to this thread, but the Rococo thread is chock full of Rolands, which is essentially a modern take on an 18thC men's jacket+waistcoat look. it is the most popular ouji item, and it, together with Boz's other historic-inspired pieces and AatP's love affair with the Rococo era, easily provide opportunities for coords inspired by clothes men once wore. not just ageplay-esque kawaii coords.

>>9406922
Lolita large and part is defined by that cupcake or A silhouette which is specifically moved away from during the Regency time. If we're sticking to the original "rules" of Lolita, anything Regency cant and wont be Lolita. Period.

BUT fashion is fluid and not that finite... Especially J Fashion. So while everyone can look at a dress >>9406933 and poo poo it to not being Lolita... If you take away the silhouette rule and put in all the "rules".... it is pretty much Lolita.

I want more Regency / Mori stuff. Its more fitting anyway~ Lolita's the Rococo opulence. Mori is the Regency return to naturalism. No more powdered wigs and ridiculous panniers -- Please!
>>
>>9407581
>that cupcake or A silhouette which is specifically moved away from during the Regency time
this is the essential problem. however, astronaut and military lolita coords have been made, so i think transposing elements of Regency into lolita can work.

additionally, brands such as Juliette et Justine sometimes make high-waist, low-poof, tea-length dresses; as does Moitie, with one example posted above. old school snaps also use that long, low-poof silhouette at times.

still, the easiest period to emulate for lolita would be late Regency as it morphs into Victorian, even with the dresses mentioned above. trying to do an early Regency lolita would be like trying to do a Flapper lolita. or a Classical Grecian lolita. you would need to be very clever to pull it off.

>>9407617
or this? The puff at the shoulder, and crazy high waist, seems similar to the styles of 1816-1817 in >>9407612
>>
>>9407612 --- Oh I agree that it can be done (and should) --- But the rebuff almost instantly is "Not the right shape!" if its a more relaxed poof or length. We see it on COF constantly... Biggest example right now is all the pics from OV. Everyone's like this is or isn't Lolita because its sticking to the "standard" of poof and length from the 2000s--not what we've seen the in the trending styles over the last 5 years. In 30 years it'll start going back the other way, and we'll be sitting on there going "I remember when Live Journal was where everyone sold their stuff. Now we have teleporters and you dont even have to wait for it to ship!!"

Old School had almost no poof, grew into massive poof, and now were moving back.

I think when we examine current fashion that is trying to be combined with historical attributes we should look for the overall aesthetic of both styles to say whether it is or not "IT", and be a little more forgiving over the hard and fast rules we've come to use as our standard.

(Pic...sort of related. I wanted to share the detailing on those sleeves.)

While the Regency and lolita silhouettes are never going to overlap, high-waisted A-line dresses can evoke a similar aesthetic to the Regency fluidity of line in my opinion. Spencer jackets could look gorgeous with high-waisted dresses and skirts, and there are so many possibilities for interesting Regency-inspired sleeves. Pic related could be the beginnings of a Regency-inspired coord - probably best with cream tights and shoes to maintain the illusion of length for the lower portion of the body. Many day dresses for the upper classes in the Regency era were white or off-white, so that could be a good starting point for planning an outfit. That said, I'd love to see an OTT interpretation of Regency evening wear, complete with turban and giant ostrich plumes!
