A marquis costume is an eighteenth-century men's outfit with a long decorated coat, knee breeches and a lace jabot, often trimmed with gold-coloured motifs. Almost everything here is marquis clothing for men, in sizes from S to XXL, and there is also a baroque costume with a coat, breeches and jabot for children. If you are looking for a historical look with more glamour than the average medieval clothing, you will find coats here covered in gold-coloured braid, damask print and fringed epaulettes.
What coats and costumes can you find in the marquis costumes?
- A marquis coat for men as a separate frock coat has long back panels with a vent and comes in black, blue and red-bordeaux, or in red, silver and gold jacquard.
- Most frock coats feature fringed epaulettes with gold-coloured braid or cords on the front, often with a stand-up collar.
- Ceremonial coats have a baroque damask print with flowers and vines, in red on black or silver on a dark background.
- Two-piece marquis costumes consist of a coat and knee breeches with a gold-coloured scroll motif, in dark blue or red.
- Baroque sets combine a coat, knee breeches and jabot in colours such as purple, lilac, cream and a green-turquoise print, sometimes with a waistcoat or shoe buckles included.
Choose a separate coat or complete set
A marquis costume as a separate frock coat or ceremonial coat is only the coat, so you wear it over your own trousers. With the two-piece suits you get a coat and knee breeches in the same pattern, and with the dark blue model the gold-coloured waistcoat and lace jabot are already attached to the coat. The baroque sets are the most complete with a coat, knee breeches and jabot, although one baroque coat with a silver print only comes with the jabot and no breeches. Also pay attention to the size range: the separate coats go up to XXL, while most sets with knee breeches stop at XL.
White curls and a marquise lady at your arm
A powdered wig from the baroque wig collection completes the eighteenth-century look above the lace jabot. If your partner is joining you as a marquise lady, her outfit matches the marquise lady costume. If you want to rank one step higher at court, wear a king costume instead of a coat with braid.
