Dress

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a mannequin wearing a long, off-white dress titled "Dress" by an artist not specified. The mannequin is white and headless, with a wooden base. The dress is made of lightweight fabric, possibly linen or cotton, and has a square neckline. It features short, puffy sleeves and a gathered bodice. The dress is floor-length, with a subtle sheen suggesting it may be made of a high-quality fabric. The background is a plain beige color. The mannequin's hands are positioned at its sides, with the left hand slightly in front of the right. Thin metal bands encircle the mannequin's wrists.
