Gallerie des Modes, 1787.  ”Jeune femme vetue d’une rodingotte…” And no, that isn’t a typo.  There wasn’t a whole lot of standardization in the spelling of these various garments.  Redingote/rodingotte/reddingotte/roddingotte are some of the spellings of this garment just from Gallerie des Modes.  Regardless of how you spell it, it is a mighty fine outfit.
