Detailed explanation-1: -How does Mathilde’s husband solve her problem of not having a dress? He suggests that she wear her theatre dress to the ball.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer: The Loisel’s had been invited to a party at the minister’s residence. When Matilda told her husband that she wanted a new dress to wear, first of all he asked her to wear whatever she possessed. When she got angry and refused to go to the party at all, he finally agreed to let her buy a new one.
Detailed explanation-3: -They could buy it for thirty-six thousand francs. Loisel had eighteen thousand francs, which his father had left him. He borrowed the rest from various sources. Finally, he bought the necklace and gave it to Matilda for her to take it back to Mme Forestier.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: Mme Loisel’s husband solved the problem. He told his wife to request her friend, Mme Forestier to lend her some jewels. When she went to Mme Forestier, the latter brought a jewel case, so that Mme Loisel could choose whichever jewel she liked.
Detailed explanation-5: -Her husband gave her 400 francs to buy a new dress, that he had been saving to buy a gun so that he could go hunting with his friends. After buying the dress she was sad because she did not have jewellery to make herself look more appealing and attractive.
