About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, knee-length dress with a blue floral print. The dress has a square neckline and a simple belt at the waist. One hand rests on her hip, and her hair is pulled back neatly. The name *Adriatique* is written in the corner, maybe the dress’s name. The small back-view sketch suggests this was a working drawing for a real garment. Next, check out Carven, the artist behind this design.

Carven

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
