On the far left, the Manteau Marchesa, a stunning creation made from both cloth and velvet, is trimmed with a silk border. The accompanying bonnet, crafted from green silk, is adorned with rich lace, roses, and feathers, adding an air of regality to the ensemble. Next, the Manteau Hongrois, designed from velvet pile cloth and a satin cording bordering the sleeves, exudes a sense of luxury. The white taffeta pique bonnet, worn with this dress, features a large feather and a roll of black lace, adding an element of mystery and allure. The centerpiece of this collection is the evening dress, a grey silk robe with a flounce of three colors. The bonnet, trimmed with a large green feather and a roll of black lace, completes the elegant look.
