Lovely photos. I would say the first one is late 1870s-early 1880s with the very long bodice. The second one a bit earlier, mid 1870s as she is showing a bustle which went out of fashion (for the first time) in about 1875. The bustle returned in 1883 or so, but this isn't that late.

Cheers,

Agree with China,but the 1st. is early 1880's as this card design wasn't around in the 70's.
