Pimpernel Clothing

Pimpernel Clothing makes men’s clothing in 18th century styles, but meant for modern people. I think it’s a great idea. So far they only have waistcoats, but coats are on their way as well.

We set up Pimpernel Clothing to design and create clothing and accessories inspired by the beauty and quality of craftsmanship of period garments.

They also sell wonderful replicas of 18th century (and earlier) card decks.

A Swedish website that makes and sells 18th century basic garments and accessories like shirts, corsets and pockets. They also sell used clothes from Durán textiles, although they don’t seem to have any on the site at the moment (I couldn’t find any anyway).

There is also some general 18th century information and trivia on the site, as well as photos.

German costuming company, mostly 18th century clothes. It seems they made the dress on the cover of the Queen of Fashion book.

French site with 18th century clothes. This site is so amazing. The photography is gorgeous and the outfits even more so. They don’t seem to be selling anything though.

EDIT: See the comment section for more information. Chenilles et papillons do take custom orders.

La couturière parisienne
Really great sites with lots of pictures and information. Has a great How To section.

Period makeups
This site shows photos of makeup from 18th century movies.

Durán Textiles AB
Great site that sells wonderful reproductions of 18th century fabrics. Also has lots of photos and a great newsletter. Too expensive for me but I love looking at the site.

Sarah Juniper
Handmade shoes. Pretty much the only site I’ve seen so far that sells 18th century shoes that aren’t boring simple black leather.

Topsy Turvy Design
Hat maker who has some fantastic 18th century hats.

Nordstjernan
Amazing 18th century outfits. The text is in Swedish only but if you don’t know Swedish you can probably still figure out how to see the photos.

The costumes of Marie Antoinette
A site mainly about the costumes from Marie Antoinette movies, but there are also some photos of actual 18th century clothes, as well as lots of photos from 18th century movies in general.
