Here are some fashion plates for 1814, the same year as the attack on
Fort Cassin. Most of these plates come from the fabulous site
Dames a la Mode. Enjoy!
My goodness. Have some feathers on your hat!

| La Belle Assemblee, June 1814. “Blucher bonnet and spencer” |

| La Belle Assemblee, The Russian and Prussian Bonnet and Pelisse, July 1814 |
These two gowns are very similar. Both are relatively simple but very pretty. And I love military shako style hat! I can't decide if the check piece on the left gown is all one piece of fabric or a separate sash and neckerchief. It could be a large neckerchief that wraps around the front of the body. Too bad there is not front view.
