The center woman is wearing a dress with a fitted bodice and long sleeves. The 4th woman from the left appears to be wearing a loose fitting housedress or robe with a jewel neckline, pagoda sleeves, no visible waistline, lace trim, and a lace cap. The seated woman is painting and has a dress with a small collar; long, loose sleeves, button front closure, and a lace cap with the ends trailing down the back.
