I would like to first take a brief journey back in history to relive
the origins of the evening gown and its impact on Western cultural society.
The Evening Gown origins dates back to the 15th century
with the rise of the Burgundian court.
Back then wool (in various weaves) was the most dominant
fabric for dresses. Ladies of the court often simply added a train
to their kirtle for formal occasions.
Rich fabrics were usually the domain of the nobility, and clothing
was still used as an identifier of social rank & status.
With the dawn of the Renaissance, the art of weaving silk
was firmly established in the Mediterranean and silk weaves
became fashionable for those who could afford them.
During the 16th & 17th centuries the renaissance brought
focus on art, literature and music.
Elaborate dinners, dances, and theatre productions allowed
fashionable ladies to showcase their attire.
During the entire Renaissance period, a ball or evening
dress was synonymous with court dress, as formal balls took
place in the palaces and salons of the nobility who copied
the latest fashions at the courts.
Starting with the late 18th century, the term "evening or
ball gown" emerged, as balls and formal dances were no
longer the sole domain of royals and aristocrats.
Fast forward to today’s World and you see that evening
gowns have maintained their prominence and stature in
beauty pageants, be it national or international.
Judges score the contestants in the evening gown segment,
the highest of which is propelled in the Top 5.
The crowning moment in the Miss Universe Pageant for
example shows the winner and the rest of the pageant
contestants in evening gowns.
