Gentlemen: a toast!

In England in the 19th century, among the upper classes dining became an art. Dining became a formal occasion: a time when it was required that men wore full evening dress. Typically, evening dress meant white tie and tails. However in military situations, full dress meant Mess Dress. Amazingly, Mess Dress hasn't changed much at all from the mid-19th century to today.

Mess Dress varies widely. The differences are not from year to year, however, but rather from regiment to regiment. Mess Dress always consists of a short jacket, usually scarlet, worn with a waistcoat and trousers.

Our easy-to-use pattern helps you make a Victorian Era Men's Army Mess Dress Jacket and Waistcoat for the 1850s through 1910s.  Variations to conform to the 1856, 1868, 1881 and 1910s regulations included.  Full instructions on how to build the jacket according to period tailoring techniques included.

Now with extra Downton Abbey goodness!

Fits chests 34" to 54", waists 28" to 50", and hips 35" to 55". All sizes in one envelope. 

Also included are assembly instructions, embellishment suggestions, and the extensive historical notes you've come to expect from Reconstructing History.

Convenient and Cost-Effective Air Filter Set for Gasoline Engine
Size: CRV (2023-2025) 1.5L Gas, Size: CRV (2023-2025) 1.5L Gas
Why did you pick this product vs others?: The set includes both the engine air filter and the cabin air filter, which I find extremely convenient because both usually need replacing around the same time—especially if you drive in dusty environments or have seasonal allergies. Ease of installation: I replaced both filters myself in under 20 minutes using just basic tools. No instructions are included, but a quick search online brought up several helpful videos tailored to my car model. Both filters fit perfectly without any force or trimming needed, which isn’t always the case with aftermarket brands. Functionality: From past experience, replacing the engine air filter regularly (every 12,000 to 15,000 miles as suggested in the owner’s manual) helps maintain better fuel efficiency and extends engine life by keeping debris out of the combustion chamber. After swapping in the new filter, I noticed the engine ran slightly smoother—especially on acceleration. Smell: The cabin air filter is equally important, particularly for passengers with allergies or sensitivity to airborne particles. I could immediately tell the airflow from the vents was stronger and fresher-smelling after the replacement, which suggests the old filter was overdue. Value for money: The ITESIER Cabin and Engine Air Filter combo pack is a smart buy for anyone maintaining a gasoline-powered vehicle like my Honda Civic. This combo pack offers good value for money compared to buying each filter separately. Quality: Overall, if you’re comfortable with basic DIY car maintenance, this kit is a great choice. It’s affordable, fits properly, and provides an easy way to knock out two important maintenance tasks in one go. Filter quality: The filters are high quality. They work without problems. Just be aware that this is designed only for gasoline engines—it won’t be compatible with diesel or hybrid powertrains.
