Costume and Fiction Links

Literature or a love of sewing lured many of us into this peculiar form of virtual time-travel. These areas, unlike other aspects of the Regency on line, tend to be covered exhaustively elsewhere, so we'll offer only the choicest links here.

Costume

Jane Austen

Georgette Heyer

In a sense, Heyer was responsible for the Regency dance movement. Back when Regency dancing started, as distinct from the English country dancing torch carried by groups such as the Country Dance and Song Society, it began at a science-fiction convention, sparked by fans of Heyer, not of Austen.
