उत्तर
Mathilde desired to enjoy the party and believed she needed to look beautiful to do so. She felt she would appear plain compared to other women at the ball and thus wanted a new, gorgeous dress. In my view, Mathilde could have purchased a new dress, but a less costly one. She should have considered her financial situation and thought about buying new clothes for her husband as well.
