Mrs. Fong is wearing a dark plaid vest - it has two parallel lines approximately 1/2 to 3/4 inches apart in a light color that create a pattern on the vest. The light color is also used in the edging on the collar and down the front of the vest. She appears to be wearing a long sleeved turtleneck sweater of the same color as the lines/edging as well as a gold chain from which one large and then three smaller pearls extend. She is also wearing drop pearl earrings. Her dark hair covers her ears is done in a bouffant/teased style. Her forearms rest on the desk/table.
