About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a sleek black dress with a fitted bodice and a flared skirt. She’s wearing a wide belt with a beaded buckle, pointed shoes, and a small handbag on her shoulder. Her hair is styled in a high, voluminous updo, and she’s holding a cigarette holder. The drawing’s loose, confident lines make the outfit look effortlessly stylish. The label in the corner says *Belle Isle*, but we don’t know why. If you like this style, check out Carven for more fashion-focused art.
