Answer:

Both breeches and pantaloons were worn during the 1810s. Breeches extended to the knee where they were fastened with buttons and a buckle or tie (Fig. 1); pantaloons, which had originated in the 1790s, were very tightly-fitted and longer, extending to the calf or ankle where they fastened with ties or buttons (Fig. 4)(Byrde 93; Johnston 14). Either could be worn during the day, but breeches were the proper evening attire with white stockings and evening pumps (Fig. 5). For daywear, both were frequently worn with tall boots, a favorite fashion of early nineteenth century menswear (le Bourhis 112). It was particularly in vogue to wear pantaloons tucked into “hessian” boots, defined by heart-shaped tops and tassels (Laver 160). Named for the Hessian mercenary soldiers from Germany, these boots and clinging pantaloons, which displayed a man’s leg muscles to great effect, lent a martial glamour to civilian dress (Ashelford 186; Johnston 14). The man in figure 1 of the Womenswear section sports pantaloons and hessians.

How did a person's economic class influence his or her life in a 19th- or early 20th-century urban center?
allsm [11]
I’m not entirely sure but I think that the higher a person’s economic class was (wealthier and had a higher social status) the more privileges they were given. They would be treated with more respect and people would be more likely to listen to them.

Shakespeare was born in London in 1564.<br> a. True<br> b. False
Ann [662]
The correct answer is : B: False. Shakespeare wasn't born in London - he was born in Stratford-upon-Avon and baptized there on 26 April 1564. His actual date of birth really remains unknown, but it is traditionally observed on 23 April, Saint Georges Day. This date, which can be traced back to an 18th-century scholar's mistake, has proved appealing to biographers, since Shakespeare died 23 April 1616. <span>He was the third child of eight and the eldest surviving son.</span>
