 Gown - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A gown (medieval Latin gunna) is a (usually) loose outer garment from knee- to full-length worn by men and women in Europe from the early Middle Ages to the seventeenth century (and continuing today in certain professions); later, gown was applied to any woman's garment consisting of a bodice and attached skirt.
The gowns worn today by academics, judges, and some clergy derive directly from the everyday garments worn by their medieval predecessors, formalized into a uniform in the course of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
By the early twentieth century, both gown and frock were essentially synonymous with dress, although gown was more often used for a formal or heavy garment and frock for a light-weight or informal one.

 A Stress Analysis
Effective as the strapless evening gown is in attracting attention, it presents tremendous engineering problems to the structural engineer.
If a small elemental strip of cloth from a strapless evening gown is isolated as a free body in the area of plane A in Figure 1, it can be seen that the tangential force F1 is balanced by the equal and opposite tangential force F2.
Since these evening gowns are worn to dances, an occasional horizontal force, shown in Figure 2 as i1, is accidentally delivered to the beam at the point c, causing impact loading, which compresses all the fibers of the beam.

 Jessamyn's Regency Costume Companion: Evening Dress
Although this Russian gown dates from 1810, Russia was several years behind the fashion, and this represents the turn-of-the-century aesthetic of a simple, white "Grecian" gown.
The gowns' narrow shape, very high waists, and slim sleeves reflect the Classical vogue, but the rich, muted silks and metallic trims are very much of the Regency.
This one would actually be even easier to construct (except for the embroidery!) since rather than a curved fabric piece, a wide brocade ribbon is used to join the two sides of the robe.
