A dress of perforated black velvet, worn over a light red silk underdress. The velvet bodice ends in a corset-style belt, made, like the lower part of the sleeves, of plain velvet; it is adorned with large steel buttons. The bodice is open at the front to reveal a gathered plastron of pale red silk chiffon, to which a similar collar is attached.

White silk chiffon blouse trimmed with groups of pleats interspersed with Valenciennes lace insertions.

A dress of black-and-white checked wool, trimmed with narrow black velvet ribbons; the circular skirt features two flounces—each finished with a narrow heading—adorned with velvet ribbons. The short, fitted bodice—pointed at the waist and fastening at the side—is trimmed with velvet ribbons; it is fitted with a plastron featuring a standing collar, the edges of which are concealed by a wide, turned-down collar; bell-shaped trimmings are applied over the rather full, puffed sleeves.
