Brown coat dress on a mannequin. The dress is knee-length and A-line with long sleeves. The bodice has pin tucks and embroidered zig-zag lines across the top and down the back. A matching fabric belt encircles the waist. The mannequin is wooden with a rounded knob at the top, a metal plate around the neck with a black number 5 on it. The mannequin and dress are in front of a wrinkled white sheet.
