I have a question about colours for the habit francaise arround 1770ies.
Must the waistcoat always be of lighter colour than the jacket?
I was so fortunate to find a ribbed silk today in dusty rose colour. It is a
Armani silk. Naturally i baught the whole rest wich was 6,30 meters. I
thoaght it would be nice with a darker grey coloured waistcoat. Make grey
embroidery on the dusty rose jacket and dusty rose embroidery on the grey
waistcoat? I dont think i have seen other pictures with darker waistcoat,
except for a black one wich went with black breeches and black jacket.
Any ideas?
