Elizabeth Manners (nee Sidney), Countess of Rutland, in a masquerade costume designed by Inigo Jones, by John de Critz the Elder,1606, indeed.

http://www.kateemersonhistoricals.com/TudorWomenSa-Sn.htm
A Who’s Who of Tudor Women: Sa-Sn
compiled by Kathy Lynn Emerson
"Elizabeth Sidney was the daughter of Sir Philip Sidney (November 30, 1554-October 17, 1586) and Frances Walsingham (c. October 1567-February 17, 1633). In March 1599, she married Roger Manners, 5th earl of Rutland (October 6, 1576-June 26, 1612). On January 5, 1606, Elizabeth participated in the climax of the court masque, Hymenaei, created by Ben Jonson and Inigo Jones. She represented one of the Powers and in order to participate paid £80 to Mr. Bethall, the gentleman usher, £10 for cutwork lace, £4 8s. for silk, and £12 3s. for a coronet, a pair of silk hose, a ruff, and a pair of shoes, all part of her costume."

And right before this portrait we see the same of one of her cousin and closest friends, Lucy Russell (nee Harington), Countess of Bedford (1580–1627), in a Masque Costume designed by Inigo Jones too. Elizabeth Manners and Lucy Russell participated in that climax of the court masque, Hymenaei, both and stand, respectively, to the left and to the right of the queen, as we can see on their turns and lot of the same elements in their clothes.
