Georgian as a style term in reference to napoleonics is usually specificaly meant to point to the particularly British fashion trends that were meant in large part to look NOT French (id est like your pic). Think white shirt black coat proto-suits. veering away from revolutionary and papist ornamentation and towards refined simplicity.

The great rununciation is anti male slander. Nobody who ever participated in the early days of the gradual decline of colourful mens clothing ever uttered such a ridiculous term. It is used exclusively by people who hate men and want to make them appear pathetic to others.

Men did not renounce colour and fun, they acquired taste of restraint, they realized that it is barbaric to go around dressed in lavish materials to show off your wealth and status, instead it is better to dress simply to show your quality of character.

don't mind the coats and vests from that era to come back but everything else can be set on fire.

I think lavish materials and clothes were beautiful, but there's something sublime about modern (relatively) menswear.

But I still absolutely agree, Napoleonic french and turn of the 19th century looks are absolutely georgeos. a great mix of bold simplicity accented by percise bolts of complexity. Knowing where simplicity makes an impact and where complexity adds nuance, without detracting from either ethos. Neither gaudy nor drool. confident in its imperiousness, but not deluded by overcompensation.

A harmony of extremes that balances out in the whole.

This never happened. As inequality narrowed, Europe needed uniform clothing. You can’t have de facto serfs in gaudy french woven silk. Look at the late tsardom, in Gogol’s day low level govt workers spent many months’s worth of pay on a single overcoat
