I imagine the woman on the right as Mrs. Salter trying to look regal and above everyone.

Wes, who had only just finished his set of dances with Kitty and was making a tour of the ballroom before taking his leave to find his father and Richard in the card room, took a step closer to Mrs. Salter and the biddy the woman had been talking to at Almack’s when he first heard the name Lydia Bennet.
“And that is precisely why you do not want a second son as a match. Their livelihood is so tenuous.” Mrs. Salter lifted her chin and, as she waved her fan in front of her face, surveyed the ballroom with a regal air. “I have pointed out his brother the viscount to my Florence.” She smirked at her friend. “If that bit of fluff who was on his arm earlier can entice him to dance with her, I see no reason why my Florence cannot do so as well.”
