It reminds me of the 1920s stylish and chic clothes when hats and head pieces were an integral part of the clothing for women.

You have a very nice composition with the inclusion of the curved stand and the vase of flowers. Your lines are flowing and light and kept simple and clean. I like the flower designs and the contrast of the solid white and black dress with it’s fur plunging collar and the matching head piece. The composition looks like the lady and the vase and stand are curving towards each other each attracting the other and both being important subjects. It’s lovely, and airy and smooth. Very nice.
