Young woman in a pink dress

A young woman in a formal gown, likely celebrating her Confirmation or Quinceañera, with seven young men at her side. Traditionally, the Mexican Quinceañera includes a court of the young girl's peers, which is made up of seven boys (called 'chambelanes') paired with seven girls (called 'damas').
