Evening wear, sometimes also known as court dress
due to its creation at royal courts, for women has its origins in the 15th
century with the rise of the Burgundian court and its fashionable and fashion-conscious ruler Philip the Good. Wool, in various weaves, was the most dominant
fabric for dresses, and the ladies of the court often simply added a train to their kirtle for formal occasions. Rich fabrics and fibres were usually the domain of
the nobility, and clothing was still used as an identifier of social rank and
status. The dawn of the Renaissance slowly changed the rigid social rank system, and allowed wealthy Patricians and merchants to visibly display their success. The art of weaving silk
was firmly established in the Mediterranean
around 1400, and as a result, silk weaves became fashionable for those who
could afford them. Dresses for court balls and similar festivities were often
made of intricately woven silk and trimmed with expensive furs to highlight the
wearer's social status.
Today, the evening gown comes in different
silhouettes and even lengths, but the full-skirted ball gown remains the pinnacle of formality. Evening gowns are worn at various
semi-formal black-tie (and sometimes white tie) functions, including formal
dinners, opera and theatre premieres, formal dances, evening wedding
receptions, and charity balls. Now we have various styles and fabrics of
