11th plate of album with 60 19th-century costume plates and 1 drawing of mostly women's historical costumes, featuring a variety of designs for traditional costumes from different parts of the world, as well as costumes for literary characters, such as Esmeralda. This plate consists of a woman wearing a costume for Cinderella, made up of a short-sleeved white blouse with ruffled borders, a red corset around her torso, a vertically-striped black and white calf-length skirt and a gran and white apron, with two pairs of diagonal black ribbons forming an X in the front of her body. She wears her curly, long hair loose, decorated by a thin, red hat with black ribbons, white pearl earrings, white stockings with thin, horizontal, red stripes, and black, pointy, low-heeled slippers with bows.
