Mercedes by Joaquin Sanchez

Posted to Foro Dinastias by Minnie on 14 November 2009; detail-enhanced by gogm and the edges were cleaned up using Photoshop.

Queen Mercedes wears a tight dress with a small, but real, bustle and tablier in this photo; her dress probably also has a cuirasse bodice. Her bodice looks like a modern sweater with its vertical ribs.
