Post WWI, waistlines dropped dramatically and quickly. However, hemlines stayed pretty low.
What I find brilliant about this dress is the addition of the twill tape to the opening to add some sturdiness to the closure. I need to do this in the future with any hooks and eyes.
Great idea about the twill tape. I wouldn't have noticed it if you hadn't pointed it out. Sometimes the fabric under my hooks are kind of flimsy too.

Not just the flimsy fabrics! But those lightweight fabrics where you need just a hint of sturdiness - rather than trying to sew up a small piece of duck cloth and finish all the edges, the twill tape will give just a hint of rigidity as well as add some stability to the area.
