Tartan Housecoat

[figheadair]

As it doesn't seem to fit anywhere else I thought I'd share an example of early 19th century tartan use in something other than a kilt, jacket or trews etc., a fine gentleman's housecoat c1810-30.



Housecoats were a common feature of a gentlemen's wardrobe in the 18th and early 19th centuries which later developed into smoking jackets.
