The description of Mathilde's reaction to losing the necklace, which is described as "as if she had been robbed," foreshadows the emotional toll that losing the necklace will have on her.
The passage of time as Mathilde and her husband work to repay the debt foreshadows the toll it takes on both of them.
The final revelation that the necklace was a fake foreshadows the irony of Mathilde's insistence on living a life of luxury and her eventual downfall.
