About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a stylish two-piece suit with a bold, geometric pattern. The jacket has wide lapels and a slightly puffy shoulder, while the pants are snug and end at her ankles. Her pose is relaxed, with one hand resting on her hip and the other dangling loosely. The name *Casanova* is scrawled in the corner, maybe hinting at a playful or bold vibe. The drawing looks quick and loose, with some areas left sketchy. Check out Carven to see more of this artist’s work.
