Caraco by an unknown artist. The image shows a full-length, off-white dress with a floral pattern on a mannequin. The dress has a short, fitted, square-necked jacket with quarter-length sleeves that buttons down the front. The jacket and bodice are decorated with flowers and leaves in shades of pink and green. The jacket has a ruffled edge. The full skirt falls to the floor and is decorated with a similar floral pattern to the bodice and jacket, with flowers and leaves in shades of pink and green concentrated at the hem and becoming less dense towards the top. The mannequin is white with a wooden base and has no head or feet. The background is plain and light grey.
