In this photograph, three women stand with their backs to us, looking at a shop window display with mannequins dressed in formal attire. The woman on the left wears a light trench coat, dark tights, and carries a black bag. The middle woman wears a blue jacket over a plaid skirt and also carries a bag. The rightmost woman wears a light coat, carries a red bag, and wears red sandals. The storefront window contains mannequins in dresses, surrounded by gold frames and decorative mirrors. The reflections of other buildings are visible in the glass window, and there is a concrete sidewalk below.
