Jane Bennet's Blue Spencers

There are two spencers featured here. I decided to put them into one post because they were so similar and there were only slight differences between them. Like Elizabeth's spencers, Jane's spencers are always paired with a white dress.


Spencer #1 Full View: There are two buttons at the bottom of the spencer that close the spencer.

Spencer #1 Front/Side View: There seem to be decorative buttons on the sleeve with triangular shapes going from the button to the sleeve.


Spencer #2 Front View: Slight differences: instead of only two buttons at the bottom for closure, there appear to be three buttons at the bottom and two more buttons above them.

Spencer #2 Side View: Here appears to be the same spencer as #1 sans buttons at the sides.

I didn't have any pictures of the back view, but I would assume that the back would be the standard Regency back.

  1. Another difference between #1 and #2 is the collars; #1 has a more common collar with pointed corners, but #2 has a rounded edge. Both very pretty. :)

  2. You can see the back of the spencer #2 in episode 2, when Lizzy walks around the garden with Mr. Collins and Mr. Wickham and Jane comes to summon Mr. Collins to Mary, because she's found some passage in Fordyce's sermons etc. The spencer has some cravat-like contraption at the back

  3. (why has my comment dissapeared?) You can see the back of the spencer #2 in ep. 2. It has a long cravat as decoration.
