About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, mid-century dress. The top is a fitted vest with a high collar, and the skirt is long and flared, hitting just above her ankles. Her hair is short and neat, and she’s holding a small purse in one hand. The drawing is loose and quick, with soft lines and no extra details. The name *Cannelle* is written in the corner, likely the dress’s name. Want to see more? Check out Carven, the artist behind this sketch.
