Not having computer access at the weekend, I missed the discussion on
this topic, but I agree that the three women in the foreground don't
have enough petticoats and their shoulders poke out too much. The one on
the extreme right in the background looks better.

The men's costumes look better. I love the photo of the gentleman in
the Place des Vosges 
(Place Royale as it was then).
