About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a dark blue dress with a fitted waist and a flared skirt. The dress has a plaid pattern on the bodice and a deep V-neck. She’s wearing simple shoes and has her arms outstretched, as if posing. The background is plain, keeping all focus on the outfit. The name *Bergamotte* is written at the top, which might be the dress’s name. The sketch is loose and quick, with some pencil lines showing movement. Check out Carven, the artist behind this drawing.
