Another great example! Stylish 19th-century men's tailcoat, probably English, from the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. It dates 1825-1830. This wool plain-weave coat, with hints of military influences, buttons all the way to the collar – although the fashion was to wear it open or buttoned just to the bottom two or three rows.

Regency-style gowns from early 1800s.
On the left, is a pretty cotton & silk dress from 1810. This style persisted until the 1820s, when the waist slowly lowered and the skirts became more bell-shaped.
On the right, you can see an ivory silk damask gown from about 1821. The Empire waistline was already beginning to drop.
These dresses are from the Kent State University Museum in Ohio.
