L'Empire features Costume Parisien fashion plates from 1798 to 1828. The web master politely asks that these wonderfully sorted images not be reproduced by others. (The 1802 Costume Parisien image on the right does not come from that collection.)
The Costumer's Manifesto has been around for a long time. Worth visiting is the section entitled: Men With Big Hair: The Costume Movie Site, where the author minces no words about costume dramas, including the Jane Austen adaptations made in recent decades.
