  2. Yes very true, ah and I love evening gowns and especially from the 1870's and 1880's they have such a elegant look about them, and I do love how the Victorians found so many occasions to wear these great gowns, I know if I had been back then I would have worn them all the time :) I m glad you enjoyed these gowns, keep checking back with me as I often post a lot of 1870's and 1880's gowns :)
