This stunning fashion plate, dated 1814, showcases an elegant opera dress from the Regency era. The image, published one month ahead of its appearance in La Belle Assemblee, showcases the height of fashionable attire during this period. The dress is depicted in a checkered pattern, a popular trend among the upper and high classes of the time. The dress features a fitted bodice, long sleeves, and a full, voluminous skirt, all adorned with intricate checks in white and a darker color. The wearer accessorizes the outfit with a matching shawl, a fashionable hat with a large, ornate bow, and a scarf tied around the neck. The hand-colored engraving on paper adds an extra layer of detail and sophistication to the already impressive design. The opera dress, with its refined lines and elegant silhouette, embodies the grace and elegance of the Regency era, making it a true treasure of fashion history. This beautiful piece is now part of the textile collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors with its timeless beauty.
