1930s ball gown

I scanned these photos from Sept 15th 1939 Harper's Bazaar magazine a year ago and set them aside, can you do that on a computer? The first image is a yellow satin embroidered silver gown the second is a pale pink with silver brocade both from Mainbocher's. Aren't these two lovely and so elegant, definately would call it dressing for a dinner party or perhaps a night to the theatre or opera.
