Thank you for the suggestion. I would very much like to see this
exhibit, but unfortunately my trip isn't until March.
Is there a permanent exhibit on display on the Costume Institute? I
can't seem to find any information one way or the other on the Met's
website.

The Met has an awesome show called "Death Becomes Her" Mourning clothes from
1800-1915or so. One of Queen Victoria's gowns is on display, and two from
Alexandra, Edward's wife. You should not miss it. It is in the costume
institute, below the Egyptian Exhibit.
I believe the show runs until February.
