>Why are these coords classified as Regency-influenced?
key Regency elements for menswear include breeches rather than trousers (in the earlier years), fitted tailcoat jackets with sometimes a cropped front, cravats or jabots (not ties or bowties), high ("popped") collars, tall hats or top hats as a change from Georgian tricorns, etc.

few of these coords actually aim to represent the Regency era, exceptig a few such as >>9407098. teasing out elements of Regency-era fashion and distinguishing them from Georgian or Victorian is important, i think, because of the widespread idea that most of ouji is "dressing like a little Victorian boy" despite all evidence to the contrary. in the Baroque/Rococo thread, the 18thC as a major influence on ouji fashion was discussed. before getting into a Victorian thread, it seemed necessary to me to establish a set of post-Rococo, pre-Victorian "look" to coords.

input and alternate examples greatly appreciated, especially for lolita or other jfash, which is lacking representation in this thread.
