A collection of 264 colour plates taken from various fashion magazines published between 1822 and 1830 during the Restoration.

The magazines from which the plates are taken are: *Le Costume parisien*, *Le Conseiller des grâces*, *Le Petit Courrier des Dames*, *Modes de Paris* and *Modes de Longchamps*. The plates were hand-coloured from the outset. In good overall condition; one plate is partially torn and ‘repaired’ on the spine with a strip of adhesive tape, which has left a faint mark on the following plate.
