You can argue that Nora wouldn't know (I certainly don't) but the fact that she named such specific dates is what gets out of hand. If she just said "Old fashioned, Pride and Prejudice like clothes" we get a clear image and it fits someone who doesn't know much about the styles of history but DOES fit her supposedly bookish personality.
