Above picture is of Mathilde's party dress.
*****
The day of the party arrived. Madame Loisel was a sucess. She was prettier than all the other women, elegant, gracious, smiling, and full of joy.
She danced wildly, with passion, forgetting everything in the triumph of her beauty and success, floating in the cloud of happiness.
Mathilde and her husband left at about four o’clock in the morning. When they were finally in the street, they could not find a cab. They walked down toward the Seine, till they found one. They were dropped off at their door in the Rue des Martyrs, and sadly, it was all over for her.
In front of the mirror, she took a final look at herself in all her glory. But suddenly she uttered a cry. She no longer had the necklace around her neck!
“What's the matter?” asked her husband.
She turned towards him, panic-stricken, “I have...I have...I no longer have Madame Forestier’s necklace”.
He stood up, distraught, “What!... how! ...That’s immpossible!”
