Ensemble

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Square-necked dress with short lace sleeves, made of light-colored fabric with a repeating dark floral pattern. The dress has a fitted bodice and a full skirt that falls to the floor. A narrow waistband separates the bodice from the skirt. The dress appears to be made of a lightweight material, possibly silk or cotton. The mannequin is white and headless, with a small wooden base visible at the bottom. The background is light gray. This is "Ensemble" by an unknown artist.
