    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Two beautifully crafted worlds are brought together in this celebration of Regency fashion and the writing of Jane Austen.

    Exquisite colour drawings from Regency magazine La Belle Assemblée and their entertaining descriptions are matched with much-loved passages from Jane Austen’s published novels, letters and manuscript fiction. Professor Ros Ballaster’s lively commentary guides the reader through this fascinating book.

    From elaborate evening gowns and elegant walking dresses to charming seaside outfits, Jane Austen's Fashion Bible brings to life the world of Jane Austen.



    The concept, to show what Austen characters would have worn, is appealing, particularly as the novelist’s 250th birthday rolls around this year
