Gowns Galore!

I have been trolling the catalogue of Metropolitan Museum of Art looking for lovely evening gowns of the 1890s.  I put together my favorites, and you can go see them!  My plan is to ruminate on these designs, then  narrow down to a few that are both gorgeous and also possible.

Ok, sure, this one is from 1902, I'm giving myself a little lee-way on the dates here...
