Mathilde changes greatly throughout the course of the story. The story starts with her as being a materialistic, rather high-maintenance woman who desires parties, jewelry, notoriety and a life of comfort and ease. She is bitter and resentful that she doesn't have money, and that she doesn't have servants, a nice house, nice clothes, nice jewelry, or nice parties and friends to be with. She resents the very food she eats, because it isn't good enough for her. She constantly longs for better things, at least in terms of money. She is willing to take money from her husband, that he had been saving for himself, to have one night of happiness at a party filled with shallow, rich people.
When she goes to the party, she enjoys herself thoroughly, and revels in her acceptance and beauty. It isn't until after she realizes she has lost the necklace, and spent years working hard to get the money, that she changes. She gives up her dreams of wealth and fame, and settles into her life with the common people. She learns to work hard. She learns to accept her life. She learns to work hard and take pride in that work. She changes quite a bit from beginning to end.
