Long gloves, also known as evening or opera gloves, were once considered a mandatory form of etiquette amongst the upper class in the Victorian era. The formal gloves typically reach above the elbow, and though they're no longer mandatory, decades later they remain a fashion staple, often used to accessorize special occasion dresses.
