This week the Vintage Fashion Guild celebrates all things inspired by the romance of the Regency period in Western fashion ca 1775-1825, and beloved author, Jane Austen. A popular subject for multiple film and theater adaptations, Austen is still utterly relevant and influencing fashion. High empire waist with low décolletage, draped gowns dominated for women during this period, while menswear gravitated towards darker colors and military influences advocated by clothier Beau Brummell.

Channel your favorite Austen character in Empire waist dresses, soft florals, petticoats, white muslin, ditsy prints, straw hats, bonnets & other millinery items, ascots & cravats, Regency style jewelry, lace & ruffles, riding boots & equestrian wear, ladies heeled slippers, opera gloves, white & pastel gowns, men's casual linen suits, Laura Ashley prints, Grecian inspired draping, Spencer-inspired jackets, costume sewing patterns, fichus & collars, and 1970s regency revival gowns.
