Not many portraits on this Site match fashion plates of the day, but this one does. She wears a wide-brimmed hat with a liner secured with a bow and ruched bands, a ruff and lace collar, a pelisse or capelet shoulder cover, wide lace epaulettes, a wide belt for a natural waistline, gigot sleeves, and a full skirt.
