This is a bit dry and academic, but has some nice visual references for the range of house dresses, and discusses a bit of the history and development. Very focused on Italy, which the Great British Sewing Bee hasn't ever brought up when discussing house dresses (pretty sure there have been at least a couple, and there was a wrap dress this season).
