She is wearing a large hat embellished with feathers and ribbon. The woman in the centre is wearing a white lace gown of a similar style to the previous gown but with a squared opening at the neckline that is edged with ruffle. The final woman is wearing a white gown with a gold-coloured blouse, belt and ribbons. The bustle is elaborately covered in draped fabric that is edged in lace.
