About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a loose, knee-length suit with a bold leaf pattern. She wears a wide-brimmed hat and stands with one hand on her hip. The lines are simple but confident, focusing on shape and fabric folds. The sketch is signed "Carven," which was a fashion designer known for bold prints. The word "Chantilly" at the top might hint at lace or a location—it’s unclear. Look up Carven to see how this drawing fits into their fashion work.
