Illustration with a design for a brown coat and dress, part of the 62nd issue of the "Journal des dames et des modes", published in Paris on February 10, 1914. The illustration features a woman wearing an ankle-length, brown duvetyn dress with narrow skirt and a black belt around her knees, held with a silver buckle to her right side, and matching brown duvetyn jacket with black belt and white fox fur borders on the neck and cuffs. She wears a black hat with small, sparkly beads and a large, black feather above her forehead, cream gloves, white stockings, and black high heels with T-straps around her ankles. She stands on a park with sand-colored grounds, in front of a green fence that separates her from apple (?) trees and a large, yellow house. Brown birds are around her, flying or standing on the floor, one of them near her hand, eating the food she offers.
