About this work

This sketch shows two women in simple, flowing dresses. One stands tall with a long skirt and a belted waist, holding a small bag. The other is smaller, wearing a shorter dress with a V-neck. Both have clean lines and a loose, natural look. The larger figure’s dress has a slight A-line shape, while the smaller one’s is straighter. The word "Bambou" is written at the top—maybe a name or style hint. Look up ensemble to see how fashion sketches like this show clothing designs in action.

Carven

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