1810 Riding Habitby *Himmapaan

Traditional Art / Drawings / Illustration / Conceptual

Riding habit, c. 1810. Pencil, sketchbook page; approximately 21 x 29.7cm.

One for the history/ historical costume buffs, just to provide another punctuation from the many recent saurian things.

This drawing was actually made a few years ago (2006/7?). Referenced from photographs of an actual riding habit in the collection of the Kyoto Costume Institute. A chance occurrence reminded me of it, and as it's still tolerable enough, I thought I may as well post it, too. _{*Tries to refrain from shrugging*}

Sigh, the compression is particularly bad on this one.

The way you manage to draw realistic dresses is just astounding...

Thank you.

It's a pleasure.

Definitely like the old-world feel to her face.

I love riding habits, their heavy folds are so elegant. There's a red one in the BBC's Wives and Daughters that I covet despite not being at all a horsy person.

But this one is lovely as well, and the details of the fabric are beautiful.

I like the hat, too; I was never fond of the straight brim of the one on the model.

Ah, yes, the one worn by Lady Harriet. 'That was a good day's work, I think.' Yes, that is gorgeous.

Lovely folds and a wonderful bodice design!

I love that style of riding habit. I hope I get to make one some day.
