Today's is this 1890s dress. The front is open to reveal a white floral pattern on burnt coral silk, while the rest drapes over it almost like a coat. The back is so excellently tailored it reminds me of a robe a l'anglaise!

An may look all elegant & stuff, but people are still people. When those get translated into reality, the results may be nice, but they sure aren't the sinuously elegant fae creatures of the plates.

My favourite artistic interpretation of a gown is Oswald Birley’s 1919 portrait of Miss Muriel Gore . The shimmery pleated delphos dress is instantly recognisable, an almost identical shade to this surviving example
