I wondered why one wrist had a gold line and a black one. SO you think the
sleeves with the band are false sleeves? Do you think they are attached to
the funnel sleeves instead of being the chemise sticking out? Why would they
do that?
I found a magnificent vintage velvet brocade on eBay. It looks very close to
the sleeve and front fabric. I got 5.5m of it, too! I can't wait to get it.

This is great! She's wearing a gold bracelet on her left wrist.You can
barely see it. And from the way the wrist opening is painted you can tell
that the white puffs on the false sleeve is not the chemise sleeve.
Most excellent find. Thank you!
