Ackermann's Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufacturers, Fashion and Politics. was a popular publications in England from 1809-1829.

Needlework played a significant role in the Regency period. The industrial age had not yet started and most textile work was performed by hand, including the creation and ornamentation of clothing and linens for the home. Those of the affluent classes could afford to pay for these services to be performed for them but those of lesser means or those women wishing to display their skill with needle and thread would stitch in one form or another during their leisure time. Ackermann's Repository (A Regency monthly publication from 1809-1828) included needlework patterns in a majority of its issues from 1811 - 1828. They did not appear every month but they were published very frequently, which goes to show they were a popular regular item for the lady readers of Ackermann's One pretty pattern from the August 1812 issue of Ackernann's Repository These lovely patterns can be used as inspiration in so many modern day crafting projects that I could not resist posting them. I'm sure their original creators would smile if they knew they were getting a new life nearly 200 years after their creation. Please take a look at my previous post to see one idea on how to use these pattens to create digital scrapbook and crafting backgrounds.

(The 1829 issues were printed as "Ackermann's Repository of Fashion".) Ackermann's listed a wide variety of current subject matters to entertain the masses of Regency England. There were political commentaries, poetry, short stories, current events, special exhibit information, stock and commerce reports and other interesting tidbits in its pages. Each issue also contained wonderful color illustrations showing fashions, home decor, public places of interest, architecture and a variety of items that would be of interest to their readers. My favorites are the Fashion Plates and there were usually 2 in each monthly issue. During the twenty year run of this monthly publication, Ackermann's made specially bound volumes available for those who were collecting the issues. These "bound" book versions consisted of a 2 volume set for each year it was published. There were a total of 3 series in that 20 year period. Series 1 began in Jan 1809 (volume 1) and ended with the Dec issue (volume 14) in 1815. Series 2 began in Jan 1816 and ended with the Dec issue in 1822.

Needlework played a significant role in the Regency period. The industrial age had not yet started and most textile work was performed by hand, including the creation and ornamentation of clothing and linens for the home. Those of the affluent classes could afford to pay for these services to be performed for them but those of lesser means or those women wishing to display their skill with needle and thread would stitch in one form or another during their leisure time. Ackermann's Repository (A Regency monthly publication from 1809-1828) included needlework patterns in a majority of its issues from 1811 - 1828. They did not appear every month but they were published very frequently, which goes to show they were a popular regular item for the lady readers of Ackermann's One pretty pattern from the August 1812 issue of Ackernann's Repository These lovely patterns can be used as inspiration in so many modern day crafting projects that I could not resist posting them. I'm sure their original creators would smile if they knew they were getting a new life nearly 200 years after their creation. Please take a look at my previous post to see one idea on how to use these pattens to create digital scrapbook and crafting backgrounds.

1815 saw the completion of Ackermann's Repository - Series 1. The British public of Regency England loved this publication and it would remain a resounding success for many years to come as they continued with series 2 and series 3 till their final issue in Dec 1828. With this post I will have shown all the fashion plates from Ackermann's series 1 and I hope you will keep checking back in as I post the Regency fashion plates for Series 2 and 3 in future posts. This is one of my favorite 1815 Ackermann's Fashion plates - plate 23 Description of Fashion plates 22 & 23 - Plate 23 is for the above shown Walking Dress A bit about Ackermann's Ackermann's Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufacturers, Fashion and Politics. was a popular publications in England from 1809-1829. (The 1829 issues were printed as "Ackermann's Repository of Fashion".) Ackermann's listed a wide variety of current subject matters to entertain the masses of Regency England. There were political commentaries, poetry, short stories, current events, special exhibit information, stock and commerce reports and other interesting tidbits in its pages. Each issue also contained wonderful color illustrations showing fashions, home decor, public places of interest, architecture and a variety of items that would be of interest to their readers. My favorites are the Fashion Plates and there were usually 2 in each monthly issue. During the twenty year run of this monthly publication, Ackermann's made specially bound volumes available for those who were collecting the issues. These "bound" book versions consisted of a 2 volume set for each year it was published. There were a total of 3 series in that 20 year period. Series 1 began in Jan 1809 (volume 1) and ended with the Dec issue (volume 14) in 1815. Series 2 began in Jan 1816 and ended with the Dec issue in 1822.

This is my favorite Ackermann's Repository fashion plate for 1811 This is my 3rd installment of fashion plates from Ackermann's Repository - Regency era magazine. Ackermann's Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufacturers, Fashion and Politics. was a popular publications in England from 1809-1829. (The 1829 issues were printed as "Ackermann's Repository of Fashion".) I have found the articles and illustrations to be a fascinating glimpse into that time period. One of my favorite ongoing series in the magazine are the fashion plates. Each monthly issue usually included 2 Fashion plates, giving on average a total of 24 Fashion plates for the year. Though the magazine was published monthly; specially bound volumes were available from Ackermann's. These "bound" book versions, consisted of a 2 volume set for each year it was in publication. Ackermann's Repository "Bound" Series 1 ran from 1809 - 1815 with a total of 14 Volumes for Series 1 Series 1 Vol 1 was Jan - June 1809 Series 1 Vol 2 was July - Dec 1809 Series 1 Vol 3 was Jan - June 1810 Series 1 Vol 4 was July - Dec 1810 Series 1 Vol 5 was Jan - June 1811 Series 1 Vol 6 was July - Dec 1811 Series 1 Vol 7 was Jan - June 1812 Series 1 Vol 8 was July - Dec 1812 Series 1 Vol 9 was Jan - June 1813 Series 1 Vol 10 was July - Dec 1813 Series 1 Vol 11 was Jan - June 1814 Series 1 Vol 12 was July - Dec 1814 Series 1 Vol 13 was Jan - June 1815 Series 1 Vol 14 was July - Dec 1815 Today I will be posting the fashion plates for the year 1811.

Needlework played a significant role in the Regency period. The industrial age had not yet started and most textile work was performed by hand, including the creation and ornamentation of clothing and linens for the home. Those of the affluent classes could afford to pay for these services to be performed for them but those of lesser means or those women wishing to display their skill with needle and thread would stitch in one form or another during their leisure time. Ackermann's Repository (A Regency monthly publication from 1809-1828) included needlework patterns in a majority of its issues from 1811 - 1828. They did not appear every month but they were published very frequently, which goes to show they were a popular regular item for the lady readers of Ackermann's One pretty pattern from the August 1812 issue of Ackernann's Repository These lovely patterns can be used as inspiration in so many modern day crafting projects that I could not resist posting them. I'm sure their original creators would smile if they knew they were getting a new life nearly 200 years after their creation. Please take a look at my previous post to see one idea on how to use these pattens to create digital scrapbook and crafting backgrounds.

1815 saw the completion of Ackermann's Repository - Series 1. The British public of Regency England loved this publication and it would remain a resounding success for many years to come as they continued with series 2 and series 3 till their final issue in Dec 1828. With this post I will have shown all the fashion plates from Ackermann's series 1 and I hope you will keep checking back in as I post the Regency fashion plates for Series 2 and 3 in future posts. This is one of my favorite 1815 Ackermann's Fashion plates - plate 23 Description of Fashion plates 22 & 23 - Plate 23 is for the above shown Walking Dress A bit about Ackermann's Ackermann's Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufacturers, Fashion and Politics. was a popular publications in England from 1809-1829. (The 1829 issues were printed as "Ackermann's Repository of Fashion".) Ackermann's listed a wide variety of current subject matters to entertain the masses of Regency England. There were political commentaries, poetry, short stories, current events, special exhibit information, stock and commerce reports and other interesting tidbits in its pages. Each issue also contained wonderful color illustrations showing fashions, home decor, public places of interest, architecture and a variety of items that would be of interest to their readers. My favorites are the Fashion Plates and there were usually 2 in each monthly issue. During the twenty year run of this monthly publication, Ackermann's made specially bound volumes available for those who were collecting the issues. These "bound" book versions consisted of a 2 volume set for each year it was published. There were a total of 3 series in that 20 year period. Series 1 began in Jan 1809 (volume 1) and ended with the Dec issue (volume 14) in 1815. Series 2 began in Jan 1816 and ended with the Dec issue in 1822. Series 3 began in Jan 1823 and ended with the final issue in Dec 1828 Ackermann's Repository "Bound" Series 1 ran from 1809 - 1815 with a total of 14 Volumes for Series 1 (click on each year below to be taken to that post) 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 Today I am thrilled to be completing Ackermann's Series 1 by posting the fashion plates for the year 1815.

Needlework played a significant role in the Regency period. The industrial age had not yet started and most textile work was performed by hand, including the creation and ornamentation of clothing and linens for the home. Those of the affluent classes could afford to pay for these services to be performed for them but those of lesser means or those women wishing to display their skill with needle and thread would stitch in one form or another during their leisure time. Ackermann's Repository (A Regency monthly publication from 1809-1828) included needlework patterns in a majority of its issues from 1811 - 1828. They did not appear every month but they were published very frequently, which goes to show they were a popular regular item for the lady readers of Ackermann's One pretty pattern from the August 1812 issue of Ackernann's Repository These lovely patterns can be used as inspiration in so many modern day crafting projects that I could not resist posting them. I'm sure their original creators would smile if they knew they were getting a new life nearly 200 years after their creation. Please take a look at my previous post to see one idea on how to use these pattens to create digital scrapbook and crafting backgrounds.

1815 saw the completion of Ackermann's Repository - Series 1. The British public of Regency England loved this publication and it would remain a resounding success for many years to come as they continued with series 2 and series 3 till their final issue in Dec 1828. With this post I will have shown all the fashion plates from Ackermann's series 1 and I hope you will keep checking back in as I post the Regency fashion plates for Series 2 and 3 in future posts.

(The 1829 issues were printed as "Ackermann's Repository of Fashion".) Ackermann's listed a wide variety of current subject matters to entertain the masses of Regency England. There were political commentaries, poetry, short stories, current events, special exhibit information, stock and commerce reports and other interesting tidbits in its pages. Each issue also contained wonderful color illustrations showing fashions, home decor, public places of interest, architecture and a variety of items that would be of interest to their readers. My favorites are the Fashion Plates and there were usually 2 in each monthly issue. During the twenty year run of this monthly publication, Ackermann's made specially bound volumes available for those who were collecting the issues. These "bound" book versions consisted of a 2 volume set for each year it was published. There were a total of 3 series in that 20 year period. Series 1 began in Jan 1809 (volume 1) and ended with the Dec issue (volume 14) in 1815. Series 2 began in Jan 1816 and ended with the Dec issue in 1822.

This is my favorite from the 1810 Ackermann's Repository fashion plates This is my 2nd installment of fashion plates from Ackermann's Repository - Regency era magazine. Ackermann's Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufacturers, Fashion and Politics. was a popular publications in England from 1809-1829. (The 1829 issues were printed as "Ackermann's Repository of Fashion".) I have found the articles and illustrations to be a fascinating glimpse into that time period. One of my favorite staples of the magazine are the fashion plates. Each monthly issue usually included 2 Fashion plates, giving on average a total of 24 Fashion plates for the year. Though the magazine was published monthly; specially bound volumes were available from Ackermann's. These "bound" book versions, consisted of a 2 volume set for each year it was in publication. Ackermann's Repository "Bound" Series 1 ran from 1809 - 1815 with a total of 14 Volumes for Series 1 Series 1 Vol 1 was Jan - June 1809 Series 1 Vol 2 was July - Dec 1809 Series 1 Vol 3 was Jan - June 1810 Series 1 Vol 4 was July - Dec 1810 Series 1 Vol 5 was Jan - June 1811 Series 1 Vol 6 was July - Dec 1811 Series 1 Vol 7 was Jan - June 1812 Series 1 Vol 8 was July - Dec 1812 Series 1 Vol 9 was Jan - June 1813 Series 1 Vol 10 was July - Dec 1813 Series 1 Vol 11 was Jan - June 1814 Series 1 Vol 12 was July - Dec 1814 Series 1 Vol 13 was Jan - June 1815 Series 1 Vol 14 was July - Dec 1815 Today I will be posting the fashion plates for the year 1810. Series 1 Vol 3 was Jan - June 1810 Series 1 Vol 4 was July - Dec 1810 I hope you enjoy!

The Dec 1810 issue of Ackermann's shows items of clothing that can be worn by ladies who are in mourning. Here again not only was the wearing of mourning a tradition but England was at war against the French (Napoleonic War 1803 - 1815) and there was an large number of families in mourning due to the losses of war. The Fashion plates in Ackermann's Repository are a joy to see on their own; but the descriptions that accompanied each item are equally fascinating to me. There is just something so eloquent in the spoken and written word of the Regency Era. Description for Sept 1810 Fashion plates 17&18 I can see how these old records would be of great use to historical romance writers and Hollywood costume designers. Not only do you get a beautiful picture but you know the fabrics, laces, colors and hairstyles that were of the latest fashion...at least according to Ackermann's I hope you have enjoyed viewing Ackermann's Repository fashion plates for 1810. Check back soon for the third installment of Ackermann's Repository - 1811 Fashion plates.

Ackermann's Repository was a popular monthly magazine in England from 1809 - 1829 that listed a wide variety of current subject matters to entertain the masses of Regency England. There were political commentaries, poetry, short stories, current events, special exhibit information, stock and commerce reports and other interesting tidbits in its pages. Each issue also contained wonderful color illustrations showing fashions, home decor, public places of interest, architecture and a variety of items that would be of interest to their readers. I've been spending this summer posting the Fashion plates from Ackermann's here on my blog so I could share all the pretty ladies that have been hiding in the dust of it's pages for 200 years. You can see the ladies of Ackermann's Series 1 (1809 - 1815) in my July postings and I continue now with Ackermann's Series 2 (1816 - 1822) here in my August postings. Ackermann's Series 2 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 This would be my tip pick of the 1817 Fashions Today I'm posting the fashions from 1817 Series 2 Vol 3 was Jan - June 1817 Series 2 Vol 4 was July - Dec 1817 Please note that the two fashions for December 1817 are Mourning costumes. This is because all of England was in mourning due to the death of Princess Charlotte; who was the only child of the Prince of Whales, later to be King George IV. I will post her death notice below all the fashions for those you are interested in seeing how her life, death and funeral were reported in the pages of Ackermann's. Enjoy!

She died on November 6th 1817 at the age 21 - in childbirth, the child was a stillborn male. Had she outlived her grandfather and father she would have been Queen of Great Britain; however this was not to be. It appears the death of Princess Charlotte has a similar effect to the Regency people as Diana's tragic death effect their descendants close to 200 years later. I found Ackermann's account of Princess Charlotte's death fascinating in comparison to the historical records I have read. The historical references show that her husband Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld had been with her through the trying ordeal but after the child proved to be stillborn and he was informed his wife was in stable condition; he took an opiate and collapsed into bed. When it was later discovered that Charlotte was in distress and dying, he could not be roused due to the drugs in his system, yet Ackermann's reported that he was there holding her hand and telling her that he loved her as she died. Here is a case of telling the public what they wanted to hear over, reporting the actual facts. It is still interesting to see how it was portrayed in publications of the day so I hope you enjoy seeing it too. I hope you have enjoyed this glimpse into Regency England and that you join me again for more Ackermann's Fashions and interesting tidbits of that era. Till next time...
