Today some small, but lovely 1867 plates from a journal called Pariser Moden, which I had not seen before (one more thing to search while out prowling for source material!). I especially love these (as some of you may guess) because they show ladies and gentlemen rather than only the ladies. 19th century women certainly wanted their men to look good and oversaw at least some aspects of their dress (and certainly in the lower classes made all their husband's and sons' clothes). So knowing what a fashionable man should look like in the ideal was important. Click to see a little more detail. Unfortunately the scans were pretty small. I found them on a fabulous French website here.
