Guest Post – Groom of Convenience by Vicktor Alexander

Breeches, Cravats, and Greatcoats

First of all, I want to thank Elin for having me on her blog. It���s so great to be here! I want to talk to you all about the sexy attire that the men wore during the Regency period that I used in my book Groom Of Convenience book one of The Scandalous Whispers of the Remmington Realm from Dreamspinner Press.


When I first started to do the research for GoC, I had to first distinguish between a few things. I essentially had four different genders:


Male Men
