Hi,
Its difficult to say. There are small flower carriers survived from the period. Stuck down into the bodice opening with fresh water to carry fresh flowers. It was very fashionable with flowers. In Denmark many of the flowers were imported from Italy made of porcelain.

Just out of curiosity -- are the flowers in this lady's hair and corsage supposed to be real, and if not, how would they be made?
