Help! Lace ID on Edwardian titanic gown 1900s silk metalic opera coat?

Hi, I am a bit stumped and could really use some help. the first item is a late Victorian but probably Edwardian to 10s cutwork gown. What sort of lace / cutwork is this? what would you call it? Do you think Edwardian? Later? Second item is a very old Henri Bendel silk? metallic robe or coat with a fur collar and silky black velvet. I think the velvet goes inside and the fabric outside because the Henri Bendel tag is directly on the velvet. It has no closures. I think there is a specific name for this and the type of fabric / pattern, but I can't recall it? Could any of you please name this item? Is it an opera coat? Is this early 1900s? Please help and TIA.
