All three pelisses (long outdoor coats for women) are actually historical ones, even though only the woman in the middle of the third panel is wearing a pelisse from 1811 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelisse). The other two coats both date back to 1812 (http://www.fashion-era.com/images/RegencyRom/1812-blue-pelisse-collar.jpg and http://janitesonthejames.blogspot.de/2011_09_01_archive.html), so there is a slight historical inaccuracy here.
The design of the blue reticule (a little handbag for ladies) shown in the last panel is inspired by a photo by  Rachel Holkner, which can be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/rachelholkner/1486973717/
