  • Classic Early 19th Century Dress Style
  • Made at Townsends
  • Available in a Variety of Colors

This dress is based on examples from around 1810. Its squared, slightly gathered neckline and short gathered sleeves are true to the period. The high under-the-bust waist is classic Empire. Both the neckline and waist are tied in back. The bodice is closed in back with bone buttons.

Because undergarment styles were extremely diverse during the Empire period, we have settled the issue for this dress by fully lining the bodice. The skirt is lined to about 36" from the underbust, which emulates the knee-length chemises occasionally worn during the period. The subtle back train gives the skirt a graceful, sweeping hemline.

Clothing styles took a dramatic twist at the turn of the 19th century. The Empire dress was a prime example of this French fashion invasion, based on that society’s fascination with the ancient cultures of Greece. As the Empire style made its first foray into British societies, fabrics were very wispy and somewhat transparent, revealing the female form that had previously been revered with utmost modesty. Prudish reactions were strong. As a result, this very short-lived fashion period went through even shorter phases delineated by fabric choices and undergarments (or most often, the lack thereof).

Awesome Anniversary Gift
I got this for my husband for our 25th silver anniversary because it is partly silver. I think it is a beautiful watch especially for the price. I think he can wear it for everyday at work and not worry about breaking it or losing it and still look classy.

Unique Couple Watch Set
It's a well-made pair of watches, perfect for you and a partner or as a gift for your friends! It comes in a presentable little box that closes magnetically with a heart-shaped white clasp, contrasting the red box, allowing for a highly giftable gift with little effort required when it comes to packaging. The watches themselves are stunning, with extreme attention to detail everywhere you look, whether it's beveled edges or even a crown emblem on the watch's crown. The crystal of the watches takes a unique approach and stylistically protrudes from the watch face, resembling a toned-down pavilion and culet of a diamond. Both watches do a great job pairing each other, and the smaller watch is different from what you'd expect, as there's effort put into its design instead of making a gimmicky downscale of the bigger watch. Overall, they're a great pair of watches that serve as a great gift for partners to match wristwatches, and my only complaint is the male watch's band size, as out of the box it easily fits around my ankle, although adjusting the links was a breeze thanks to the provided tools.
