One of the things I love best about the Regency period is the clothes. Though the ladies still wear stays, the corsets of the Georgian era are gone. The wide skirts with panniers have been replaced by a more elegant line. The movies I’ve watched bringing the books of Jane Austen to life have brought Regency gowns to my mind for years. Now that I am writing in this time period, I can indulge my joy in these dresses even more.
My good friend Gaile has sent me a beautiful Regency style gown that she created and sewed herself. As soon as I have gotten it altered, I will take a photo and show it off here.
