When the 1700s began, so did the Enlightenment and the Classical Baroque period. Clothing changed from the Renaissance to the Baroque style of fashion, which was defined by excess and luxury. Everything began to be more adaptable, and for the first time, people of any status or class could mix and match clothing. Men began to adopt more dramatic and fashion-forward attire. Gone were the restrained styles of the Renaissance. In their place, Baroque men donned elaborate frock coats, high-waisted pants, wide lace collars, lace shirt cuffs, with accessories becoming much more fashionable.
This men’s Baroque/Rococo frock coat is authentic to the men’s attire of the 18th and 19th centuries in Europe. It features decorative braided trim decoration and two non-working pockets on the exterior to accentuate the style and the classic Baroque look.
Pair this Baroque-era frock coat with our wide selection of 17th and 18th-century clothing pieces to create your very own personalized period costume.
