I'm not certain about Directoire and Romantic, but Empire, Regency, and Federal are, historically speaking, all about the same time period, but refer to different countries. Empire refers to the Napoleonic empire, and is French. Regency is English, and Federal is American. -Charlotte _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
