Attire Minimum Requirements
The goal is to have fun at this event while expressing your stylish creativity! I certainly don't wish to impede that. I have minimum requirements that MUST be adhered for gowns and suits.
Dearest Gentle Ladies,
Women were very modest in late 18th century, I have some picture examples of the acceptable styles below!
Remember, NO RED! EVERY other color is allowed!
DO'S
Floor length gowns only (please no visible slits)
Cap sleeves or longer look beautiful, but feel free to experiment with spaghetti straps, wide straps, or strapless - NOTE: Boleros can work too! Love a sleeveless or spaghetti strap gown, wear a bolero with it to give it a regency look. Questions, please message me, I'd love to assist!
Bodice can be corset, but not required. However, keep in mind that no full back or belly should be showing. Shoulders are totally fine!
Festive gowns for an event like this tend to have pretty patterns or stylish material, but solid colors work great too. We would love to see all the different styles yall come up with!
The following necklines and waistline styles are perfect for the ball, any style sleeve works!

Dearest Gentle Lords,
Men were very dashing in late 18th century, I have some picture examples of the acceptable styles below!
Remember, NO red. Every other color is allowed!
DO'S
Proper shirt and "tie"
Slacks are required, straight leg preferably (no bootcut or flares)
Tailcoat Jackets or European model jackets are required.
Vests (get creative, this piece will stand out under your jackets!) OR Cummerbunds (if jacket is on all evening)
Dress shoes are required (they do NOT require a heel)
Ascots are a popular pick during this era and look terrific under the jacket and vest.
