Conjunto

ca. 1820
Not on view
A silhueta de cintura alta que caracteriza os vestidos femininos na década de 1820 tem sua contrapartida no traje masculino. A jaqueta estreita no corte pela frente e as calças de cintura alta acentuam o comprimento das pernas. O estilo altera sutilmente as proporções habituais, o que levou à sua caricaturização. Durante o século XIX, o vestuário masculino tornou-se cada vez menos influenciado pelos caprichos da moda e as expressões criativas foram relegadas às gravatas, ao colete, e, no caso do traje informal, ao tecido da camisa. Para o dândi, a alfaiataria masculina tornou-se “um traje uniforme lamentável que é testemunho da igualdade”.
