Happy Weekly! Have you been pinning? Yeah? What? I found a pinner who--well, actually, she is a follower, so she found me. Thank you to all of my followers!--but I digress. Helen is a fabulous pinner! No, seriously, fabulous and organized and prolific. So a couple of stats: 211Boards 13.6kPins 96Likes 1.5kFollowers 5.7kFollowing But the number of pins, while impressive, is not the thing. No, the thing is that Helen's boards have titles like "Quilts: Amish;" "Quilts: Tula Pink;" and about 70 others. See how organized her quilt boards are? Impressed yet? I am. Want to know how to find her? Well, it's easy! Go to her site. Of course Helen has many other boards, and many are also about sewing of some nature, but others have recipes, beautiful spaces, and people. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

Today I bring you another installment of Regency fashions from the pages of Ackermann's Repository. In my previous posts from the last part of 1817 - 1820, Ackermann's included a large amount of fashion plates dedicated to mourning fashions due to several deaths within the royal family. It's a nice change of pace to see that most of the fashion plates for 1821 are gaily colored; however the two fashion plates for September 1821 again show mourning clothing due to the death of yet another royal - Queen Caroline wife of the newly crowned King George IV. Her death did not overly impact fashions as you can tell by the remainder of the fashion plates for late fall and winter; since the October fashion plates are a deep rose colored costume and a formal court dress. The Queen passed away in August of 1821 and court mourning was officially ended in late September. For those of you who like to see the interesting written tidbits from Ackermann's; I will be posting Queen Caroline's Death notice and the Ackermann's article about the Royal Coronation of King George the IV at the bottom of this post. Enjoy! My top pick of the 1821 fashion plates The coronation of King George IV (previously the Prince Regent also known as Prinny to his close friends) took place in July 1821 and inspired another fashion plate depicting a fancy court dress.

They are just so much fun to look at. Thanks for taking a look at 1821 Regency Fashions from the pages of Ackermann's Repository and join me again in the near future for a look at 1822. ***************** Now for those who want to see the Ackermann's account of: Queen Caroline's death and the Coronation of King George IV The Death of Queen Caroline The Coronation of King George IV I thought it was interesting that he wanted a grand ceremony that would outshine Napoleon's and that he choose to do it in the style of the Tudor's. I'm sure the whole affair felt like a fancy dress ball for those in attendance. I enjoy seeing how events like these were recorded in it's day so I hope you found it interesting as well. ************** For your convenience I have included some quick links for my previous postings of Ackermann's Repository Fashions below Ackermann's ran series 1 from 1809 - 1815 Series 1 - Vol 1 & 2 - 1809 Series 1 - Vol 3 & 4 - 1810 Series 1 - Vol 5 & 6 - 1811 Series 1 - Vol 7 & 8 - 1812 Series 1 - Vol 9 & 10 - 1813 Series 1 - Vol 11 & 12 - 1814 Series 1 - Vol 13 & 14 - 1815 The Ladies of Ackermann's Regency Fashion (this is a fun digital art piece I did using many of the above ladies) Ackermann's ran series 2 from 1816 - 1822 Series 2 - Vol 1 & 2 - 1816 Series 2 - Vol 3 & 4 - 1817 Series 2 - Vol 5 & 6 - 1818 Series 2 - Vol 7 & 8 - 1819 Series 2 - Vol 9 & 10 - 1820 Series 2 - Vol 11 & 12 - 1821 Series 2 - Vol 13 & 14 - 1822 - coming soon Ackermann's ran series 3 from 1823 - 1828 (series 3 coming soon) I hope you join me again for more Regency fashions from Ackermann's Repository Till next time...

I learned a new thing this morning. While looking on Pinterest for a picture from 1908, I came across a fashion plate showing a sleeveless...
