The Aviary Aristocrat : Dandified Regency Style | Regencycore & Avian Whimsy

June 28, 2021
Flat lay of a pale lemon yellow empire-waist gown, a teal velvet cropped tailcoat, a ruffled lace jabot, and gold bird-shaped brooches.
Historical Whimsy

Empire Silhouettes & Songbird Finery

Look 59 reimagines the rigid social codes of the Regency era as a playground for self-expression. We’ve combined the classic empire-waist gown in a soft lemon silk with a dandy-inspired teal velvet tailcoat. To push the whimsy even further, the look is adorned with bird motifs—from feathered fans to golden swallow brooches—as if the wearer just stepped out of a royal bird sanctuary. It is a celebratory, gender-bending nod to historical elegance and natural beauty.

Get the Look:

  • The Gown: A sleeveless empire-waist dress in pale lemon-yellow silk with white leaf embroidery along the hem.
  • The Tailoring: A cropped, military-style tailcoat in deep teal velvet with high lapels and gold piping.
  • The Neckwear: A detachable, multi-layered lace jabot pinned with a vintage golden swallow bird brooch.
  • The Footwear: Flat silk ballet slippers in a contrasting coral pink with ribbon ties.
  • The Accessories: A small birdcage-shaped clutch and a folding fan decorated with peacock feathers.
