One sees funky-looking colors of gloves in plates.Of course white kid gloves tend not to be startlingly white, but they are also very expensive and hard to clean. So maybe go with a cream, or maybe a grayish-blue?

It consists of a black lace overdress with a slate blue lining. I'm uncertain as to what color gloves should be worn with this color ensemble/ I think white gloves against the black and slate blue would look garish, and black gloves would look too much like mourning wear, which it is not. What would they have worn in Regency times?
