So, that's only an idea. I am not sure if these dresses scream "ILSE" to me, because her style is so extravagant nothing can compare.
Feel free to add more. Also, thanks to @daydreamingandprocrastination for inspiring the idea.

Years of Dresses: 1894
All images courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Image descriptions under the cut.
The first dress is an American silk dress.
The second dress is a French dress composed of cotton and silk labelled “Ernest Raudnitz” of Paris. Circa 1894-95.
The next dress is a silk American dinner dress designed by Mrs. Arnold “a little known Brooklyn dressmaker.” Circa 1894-96.
The following dress is a French dinner dress designed by Jeanne Hallée. The MET notes, “Jeanne Hallée was an important dressmaker at the time and extant examples of her designs are fairly rare.” This dress is composed of cotton and silk with metal embellishments. Circa 1894-96.
The next evening dress is a House of Worth silk dress.
The final dress is a House of Worth tea gown. The MET notes that “The sleeves and collar of this teagown reference the early 17th century, which was a common period for Worth to draw from.” They also note that a common Worth practice employed here is to use the salvages as decoration. The dress is boned despite not needing to be boned to retain its shape, as that is what was comfortable for women at the time.
