French fashion plates call these coats Redingotes and they are designed for women, men and children. English fashion plates call them a Pelisse, a walking dress, Promenade dress, or Carriage dress.

1807 Two Ladies and a Gentleman In Outdoor Walking Outfits. #Regency #Fashion #JaneAusten

Suzi Love Posted on by

1807 Two Ladies and a Gentleman, English. Lady in lavender walking dress, or Pelisse, with fur trim, holding a blue reticule or bag, fitted lavender bonnet with tassel and yellow gloves. Lady in white evening dress with salmon tunic caught up at one side and evening turban. Man in long blue overcoat, or Redingote, with contrasting collar, high white cravat, yellow gloves, tall Hessian boots with tassels, and wearing a top hat. via Le Beau Monde, or Literary and Fashionable Magazine, London, U.K.

These are the types of outfits worn by Jane Austen and contemporaries in England and shown in their English magazines. The same designs had probably already been seen in France, because English publishers obsessively copied French fashions despite the two countries being at war for many years.
