A marvelous drawing by Gerbault! Like Armand Vallée and Chéri Hérouard, he published a lot of illustrations in the french Magazine La Vie Parisienne in the first half of the 20th Century. But this particular drawing must be a concept for a costume of a theater play (he produced a lot of concepts like this one, always really striking and colourful).

Yes, and Vald'Es too. :) They are amongst my favourite, together with Léonnec, Milliere and Prejelan.
You're correct, it should be a costume design for an operetta. It has a unique use of what I think is white lead: it's abundant on the dress, so it formed some cracks through the years giving a weird "pearly" effect.
