Illustration with a design for a green and black suit, part of the 69th issue of the "Journal des dames et des modes", published in Paris on April 20, 1914. The illustration features a woman wearing a three-piece suit made up of matching green jacket and skirt, both featuring black velvet borders, and a strawberry-colored gilet, worn over a white blouse. She wears a black-and-green hat, cream gloves, and cream-and-black boots, and holds a thin, long, black cane under her arm, while walking under a rainy sky with gray clouds. Behind her wals a small, black dog, and a man, wearing a grayish-green coat and green pants, black hat and shoes, and holding a black umbrella on his hands, walks past her in the distance.
