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?
