But I understand George Washington was an admirer of fine lace, and I won't argue with him. I really do love the long coats and waistcoats. I prefer the more every day look than the fancy dress and I was surprised to learn that some men (in Carla Gadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01793809172905144101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139112422565969072.post-24215241459219349122011-09-21T19:10:50.142-04:002011-09-21T19:10:50.142-04:00Joan, I didn't know that about tricorne hats. ...Joan, I didn't know that about tricorne hats.

In fact, I chose to set my first historical in the late 18th century instead of the early 19th for the purely fanciful reason that I wanted my male characters to wear knee breeches instead of trousers. Thanks for the post on these lovely clothes.

Checking out costume in historically accurate movies is just so much fun. <br /><br />For those who write or enjoy stories that include military men, like me, a terrific resource for uniforms is Don Troiani's Soldiers in America: 1754 to 1865. Beautiful illustrations and excellent text!! I refer to it a lot. Tricorne, btw, is what we call cocked hats J. M. Hochstetlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07291602346312967152noreply@blogger.com
