That should read black linen, and the pearls are stitched individually along the outlines of the ermine

This was done fora competition that required the layers of clothing to be created and at least one accessory be made in four months. So the rosary, handkerchief, all the jewelry was also made in that time, bloomers and petticoats are also worn
