Frock coat

A frock coat is a historic men’s garment from the 19th century, characterized by its fitted waist and flared skirt extending to the knees or below. It features a single or double-breasted front, with a high, stiff collar and often lapels, giving it a formal, elegant appearance. Traditionally worn for formal occasions or business attire, the frock coat symbolizes a classic, timeless style, and was popular among men in Victorian England and Europe. Though less common today, it remains a symbol of distinguished, vintage fashion and is sometimes used in historical reenactments or formal events.
