I should read this: it sounds just like me.
“You know I’m old in some ways. In others, well, I’m just a little girl. I like sunshine and pretty things and cheerfulness and I dread responsibility.”
- F. Scott Fitzgerald, This Side of Paradise

Fashion design in the early 19th century is called ‘Regency style’ - named from Britain’s George Prince Regent who ran the country when his father, King George III became mentally ill and unable to perform his duties. The detested and debauched Prince Regent became king in 1830.
Ladies’ clothing styles of the early 1800’s are characterized by the Empire waist dress and classical Greek lines; the styles worn by characters in Jane Austen novels.
Included in the Regency period is the Romantic era, influenced by a new romantic sensibility typified by writers like Lord Byron and Sir Walter Scott.
