Johann Cleophas Hinrichs - Fabric Merchant & Reenactor on Instagram: "👑 When menswear was art… This early 18th century British waistcoat is not just clothing – it’s a masterpiece. Handmade from linen, embroidered with silk & metallic threads 🌸✨ Every flower tells a story of power, status & pure craftsmanship. From the courts of the 1700s straight into your feed – would you dare to wear it today? 🔥 300 years old. Still iconic. 🎨 Fashion = history = art. #18thcenturyfashion #historicalfashion
