This weekend, the Regency tailcoat gets ordered for the ball. As much as it is for the ball, it will, in truth, probably become something of a staple in my regular wardrobe, because I'm like that, as such there are color considerations. I am making white breeches to go with it, as I prefer the look of the early-Regency (later they go black, as do the coats). As such, I need to decide on a color for the coat.

I say green, but only if the pants are a candlelight or maybe oyster oe ecru, not straight-up white. Otherwise i think it would be a bit harsh on your skin and hair.


To be completely harsh and pragmatic, since you're having it made, black would probably be best, especially if it's the kind of thing you might wear to shoots. Story-heart still says green.
