This investigation delves into the clothing orders of the late-Georgian British Army, juxtaposing regulated dress with the contemporary fashion of the time as depicted in writings and illustrations. The early nineteenth century marked a peak in fashionable masculine attire, influenced by military tailoring, which led to an era of uniform splendor that persisted into the 1830s. This fascination with military costume remains strong today. The army, despite its cumbersome uniforms, gained recognition as one of the most effective British fighting forces, celebrated for its achievements. The interplay of late Georgian civilian tailoring, military uniformity, and excellence in campaigns has captivated public interest, inspiring numerous representations in popular culture across various media. The need for another exploration of uniforms from this period arises from the vast increase in research material available online, particularly through digital archives of institutional collections. This wealth of information complicates the task of gathering accurate details but ultimately leads to more satisfying and precise results. This second volume specifically examines the 'Prince’s Regulations' of 1812, showcasing the Prince Regent’s significant influence on military aesthetics.
