A French Blue Silk Habit de Ville Complete Frock Coat - Napoleonic Period, 1805
Provenance from the Mallet-Oberkampf family, Protestant ruling elites and close to Emperor Napoleon I, who awarded the Legion of Honour to Oberkampf in 1806. This ensemble by its quality materializes the technological advances of the industry at the service of the Fashion of the Empire, advocated by the famous fashion merchant of the empress, Louis Hippolyte Leroy.

Fellas, is it gay to peer deeply into your friend's tired eyes and call him a "poor thing"?

An Exquisite alias Dandy in Distress, 1810s.
Rating: NOT CUTE.
The title alone is a giveaway, but there will always be cruel people who see something like this as a joke (probably the same people who deliberately frighten their pets and record it).
The poor dandy is of course distressed because he cannot bend to retreive his handkerchief, "stocked and stayed laced and bound." Even if someone were to assist him, this early 19th century man is wearing an excessive amount of body-shaping garments that could possibly lead to long-term health problems. Everyone wants an Exquisite, but what about when he has trouble breathing or accomplishing simple tasks? He is NOT a toy!

The Great Longchamps Day (1820) by François Courboin, 1898.
On higher rungs of the social ladder, English dandies and their French counterparts provoked similar shock within Paris salons. Even more than England, France was caught up in an orgy of accessories such as trinkets, charms, signet rings, seals, lorgnettes, collar buckles, breech buckles and gold slides for suspenders. Commentators observed, often with alarm, the increasing use of “little round mirrors with mother-of-pearl handles for cleaning your teeth, curling your hair, darkening your eyebrows.” Dandies spent “entire hours in the morning gazing at themselves and preening,” noted Le Journal des dames et des modes in 1820, concluding in the following year that “as women become more straightforward in their dress, young men are becoming more clothes-conscious.”
— Farid Chenoune, A History of Men’s Fashion (translated by Deke Dusinberre)

How about a game of snapdragon? 🔥🔥🔥
In this daring Regency game, nuts and raisins would be soaked in brandy and set alight. Players would test their courage by snatching a still-burning treat from the bright blue flames and popping it in their mouth.
It sounds a lot more dangerous than it is. The secret is in the blue flame-- brandy, being approximately 50% alcohol-- does not burn as hot. A regular, yellow flame would create twice the heat! Plus, the nuts and raisins cool quickly.
Liam & Daniel have played this before with their families. Adrian & Zach, however, are a little dubious.
🕯New episode airs tomorrow!🕯
