Faro Ladies is a term for aristocratic female gamblers in the late eighteenth century. Gambling in public was not acceptable for aristocratic women as it was for aristocratic men in 18th century England, who played at social clubs such as the Tory-affiliated White's or the Whig-affiliated Brooks's.
