The evening gown is an invention of the 20th century. In fact, dressing entirely differently for evening only began in the 1920s. In previous centuries, dress styles had been almost the same for day and night. Then, as happens with fashion, the ladies changed their minds. Although they hankered after a practical form of dress for daytime, they wished to reassert their femininity after dark.
 
The evening dress got its cachet from the fact that as skirts for day shortened, skirts for evening remained long. Either slinky or floaty, a glamorous evening gown was 'de rigueur' for a woman of fashion. How else could she show off the diamonds that the novel Gentleman Prefer Blonds had convinced her were almost her birthright?
