Thank you Bjarne,
I got to playing around with the search engine, and found this
interesting gown, from the House of Worth.

I found it amusing that they would do a renaissance style gown for
the well to do. I could almost see this gown on a "friend of faire"
person, someone who likes to dress up with something that looks
kinda right, but isn't.
And in purple velvet, it's rather fetching.

I have a fashion print showing "historical" outfits for a fancy dress
(costume) ball in the 1880s. It's hilarious from a costumer's
viewpoint. Imagine Mary Queen of Scots with an 1880s shape. :-D Very funny.
