Could anyone tell me more about these?

hello, I was offered a couple of (what the dealer told me was Victorian, although I’m not so sure) undergarments a veil and a dress, and since I rarely get anything pre 50's out here, I thought I’d ask everyone if anyone could tell me more about what they are/ if they are sellable. I've only got these pictures, and don't really know more than that, but here they are:

this is all-in-one. I was thinking more Edwardian on this? is there a particular name for this type of undergarment?

a veil, and then some sort of cape?

and this dress- again more inclined to say this is Edwardian or later?

also a couple Edwardian half-slips, and unless the frilly 50's kind I’d imagine they are hard to sell? Any help really appreciated!
 
The top garment is a camiknickers or combination and is very nice with all that lace insertion. And yes, Edwardian.

The dress appears to be early 1920s with the straight unfitted shape, the straight neckline slip underneath and the ankle length.

The veil? I can't help there.

And I can't really tell what the other piece is - although possibly a collar or a chemisette.
