Madame Bovary / Isabelle Huppert as Emma Bovary

Madame Bovary wears this floral-embroidered jacket and skirt to the agricultural show where she embarks on her (first) extramarital affair. The jacket looks solid from a distance, but it actually has a small checked pattern. I think the skirt is solid. I love the contrast of the moss-green velvet ribbons on the bonnet!

The novel was originally published in 1856. I'm not always good at telling the 1850s from the 1840s, but I think they've gone for 1840s in the costuming, as it looks like the 1850s favored looser sleeves.

"Perhaps she would have liked to confide in someone about all these things. But how to express an uneasiness so intangible, one that changes shape like a cloud, that changes direction like the wind? She lacked the words, the occasion, the courage." - Gustave Flaubert, Madame Bovary
