>>There was also the mention of zipper tabs being able to be seen on a
few pieces, but I had a hard time spotting them.
At first I though I was seeing zip tabs, in fact sometimes on the weird
center front closing on the gowns. However, when going over the exhibit
pics of the gowns from the Arclight exhibit I found it's a lace and hook
arrangement. Check out the detail here, under "Bodice Closing"

Interesting closing, doubt greatly it's historical.
