JANE AUSTEN returns with Stephanie Mann

Thursday 23 Apr 1998, 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Stephanie Mann, in authentic costume, is Jane Austen. Miss Austen is discovered in various rooms reading from letters written to her friends, taking you back in time to the London of 1813. Subsequently in the Kent Room, Stephanie will partly disrobe, explaining the fascinating intricacies of Regency Dress, the layers and tapes and just how Regency ladies obtained that soft, ethereal, floating shape, then so fashionable. An experience on the other side of the wardrobe looking glass, as it were.
