The period between the 1830s and 1890s was full of positive transformation and excitement in England, and it's no surprise that this era features heavily in most historical settings.
This period also saw amazing new fashion trends develop rapidly, thanks to the growth of mass-producing sewing machines. King Charles II introduced the waistcoat in the mid-1600s after restoring the British monarchy. However, it wasn't until the 19th century that the waistcoat became a popular fashion garment.
During that time, gentlemen's waistcoats became a fashion staple. Most of these garments were made out of luxurious materials and fabrics such as velvet, brocade, and even silk.
Victorian women also wore these waistcoats, although it was quite different from the pieces worn by men. Women's waistcoats tended to have sleeves and appeared as though a jacket was being worn over the waistcoat. It was designed to ensure that their waists didn't appear bulkier or larger.
