A Victorian morning coat, also known as a frock coat or a cutaway coat, is a formal garment worn by men during the Victorian era, which spanned from the 1830s to the early 1900s. It was a key component of the fashionable morning dress ensemble.
The Victorian morning coat was characterized by its tailored and structured silhouette, designed to fit closely to the body. It featured a knee-length hemline in the front that sloped back into two long tails at the back, creating a distinctive “cutaway” effect. The coat was typically made from high-quality wool or a blend of wool and silk. Expertly tailored, made from sturdy and luxurious fabric, with long tails at the back and functional pockets.
Victorian morning coats were commonly worn for formal daytime occasions, such as weddings, horse races, or social events. They were typically paired with a waistcoat (vest), matching trousers, a dress shirt, and a top hat, completing the formal morning dress attire of the time.
