Mr Bennet is wearing an old-fashioned tricorne hat. Like Mrs Bennet, he clings to the styles of his youth. But the rest of his clothes would pass muster in the 1790s or in the first two decades of the nineteenth century.
Bingley fares better. As a young man with 5 thousand a year, he is well dressed.
Darcy here is well dressed, as befits a man of his station.
We have no idea what he's wearing here. Is it a coat? Is it his dressing-gown? And where is his cravat? Quite frankly, when he looks like this, who cares?
What do you think?
Is this a wonderfully romantic image, or is it a liberty too far? Do you think he looks so wonderful you don't care about accuracy, or do you think that Darcy would never go out in a state of partial undress? Does this shot make the film for you, or does it ruin it?

What time of year is it? Because if Darcy's wandering around in winter-time without a cravat, he runs the risk of developing a putrid throat.
It seems to me that this film is probably including a cravat-less Darcy to counter the popularity of the TV version's bathing and soaked-shirt Darcy.
Cravat-free wandering does seem to me to be more likely in Heathcliff than in Darcy.
Why does Mr Bennet look crumpled and disreputable, rather than sarcastic and cynical?
I think... lots of pictures of Regency men = very nice. :)
I think that it was Byron who brought the open-necked look into the fashion, during the second decade of the 19th Century. Indeed Byron went as far as having early portraits of him altered to show this new style, rather than the Beau Brummell™ look that he had previously adopted.
Putrid sore throats would have been less of a problem in the isles of Greece, where burning Sappho loved and sung (Eternal summer gilds them yet, but all, except their sun, is set.)
At least Colin Firth's Darcy was expecting to be home alone... I don't remember the circumstances of that shot, but if he /is/ wandering around half dressed like that, he's severly gone down in my estimation.
