were made with bodices and skirts sewn together as one of several
layers. She has on a corset, which was a stiff garment that comes into
a V shaped stomacher at the front of the garment. She has what looks
to be a lace whisk, a wide lace collar or band of linen, which you can
see at the sleeves and around the neckline, which could mean royalty.
Her sleeves are very full. Her neckline is low with a slight V, but more
horizontal. Her sleeves are set low on the shoulder and opened at a
puff at the end of the sleeve. Her dress seems to be made of a heavy
satin fabric in the color black. She has a broach at the top of her bodice
connected to a shawl that is wrapped around the back of her that is
probably made of silk. She has a middle part in her hair and drawn
back into a chignon at the back of her head and arranged in curls
around her face. Although you cannot see the bottom half of her outfit,
she is most likely wearing wooden soled shoes with no heels that were
popular of the time and kept them out of the wet streets or pointed toe
shoes with thin heels made of Brocades or leather for more fashionable
shoes. The jewelry that she is wearing is all pearls, which could also
indicate wealth. She has large pearls in her ears and a string of pearls
around her neck. She also has a gold ring on her finger, most likely a
wedding ring.
Both of the paintings are portraits of women who seem to have
higher standings and are possibly wealthy. They both are wearing
jewelry with expensive stones. Both of the women have V shaped
bodices and the skirt and the bodice on both of them are sewn
together. The first painting of the lady wearing white has a high
neckline while the second paining has a much lower neckline that is a
little bit off the shoulders. The woman in the first painting had sleeves
that went all the way to her wrists and the woman in the second
painting only had three quarter length sleeves. They most likely had
different shoes that werent wooden like the Baroque. They are quite
different in many ways but they have some similarities.
