JASNA-SC Next Meeting! ~ “Regency Fashion”

Please join us for our next JASNA-South Carolina meeting
at the Bluffton Library,
15 March 2025, 2-4 pm!

Step back in time to explore the elegance and significance of Regency fashion. We will delve into the historical and political influences shaping style in Regency England, with connections to Parisian trends and early American fashion. Discover insights from Jane Austen’s personal letters, where clothing and society intertwine, and see how modern adaptations bring her world to life through costume. Highlighting the presentation is a showcase of hand-crafted Regency costumes, offering a tangible glimpse into this fascinating era.
