No, this is not the intended look for Londwyn, and you can expect we will be adding notes to the Londwyn description that better clarify their costuming intent.

This website is wonderful for props, but costuming wise, the only elements that actually fit within the Londwyn "look" is pants with suspenders, collarless shirts and some of the long coats.

Additionally, consider that the actual appearance of Londwyn should be closer to late renaissance/early colonialism, not early english industrial/late victorian.

I started to Google "late rennaisance/early colonialism" and found that most of the images, art, and pictures of the society of then lends to a Tudor's/Henry VIII look.  Is this what James was looking for/imagining?

I will endeavor to find some good references for public perusal this week to give an idea of a range of Londwynian concepts. Consider that most references you will find casually on le intertubes is going to lean towards high society and fanciful clothing. The average man's clothing is going to be a good deal more focused towards the utilitarian.
