On the frock coat, tartan and kilt, civilian uniforms, and powdered wigs, both large and modest --|g Chapter six.|t Style and status. The importance of the well-dressed man's basic black suit and the elegant woman's eight daily toilettes; the prevalence of silk and velvet waistcoats and the art of the perfectly tied cravat --|g Chapter seven.|t Sex and simplicity.
