content: Fashion illustration featuring a woman on the left facing forward, wearing a long, voluminous, white, off-the-shoulder dress that includes floral embellishments on the skirt. She also wears black shoes, a pink belt, and a large pink and white hat on top of her brown curls. Her arms are slightly raised, with her left arm holding a black shawl which is partially covered with an elaborate, colorful paisley pattern, or perhaps reversible, with the paisley covering one side and black on the other. On the right, a woman wearing a white dress with a blue belt and a white and blue hat sits in a green wooden chair, facing slightly left and glancing right, with her back turned towards the viewer.
