About this work

This sketch shows a woman walking sideways, dressed in a dark coat, matching skirt, and pointed shoes. Her hair is pulled back, and she wears a light scarf under the coat. The drawing is loose and quick, with simple lines and flat colors. The coat has two buttons and a small pocket on the front, while her skirt hits just above her ankles. The artist focused on the outfit’s clean, sharp shapes. Next, check out Carven to see more of their fashion-inspired art.
