The skirt has bands of black lace at the hem alternating with black floral patterns. She wears yellow gloves and a narrow bracelet. There is a lace rosette at the neck, and a long and wide black ribbon tumbles down the back from the waist. Her hair is dressed up at the back, and her black hat is trimmed with a striped ribbon cockade. The woman on the right is wearing a yellow jumper style dress with a red cherry pattern over a red dress. The dress has narrow sleeves, a high neck, and a gathered front. The jumper is sleeveless, crosses over at the front, and has braid trimming the neck, armholes, and front waist. She wears light blue gloves and a gold bracelet, and carries a furled red parasol.
