About this work

This drawing shows a woman wearing a long coat with a dark blue-green plaid pattern. The coat has a high collar and two front pockets. She stands with her hands tucked in her pockets, wearing simple shoes and a small hat. The name *Clairon* is written in the corner, which might be the design’s title. The loose, sketchy lines suggest this was drawn quickly, maybe as a rough idea for a garment. Look up Carven next to see more of their fashion sketches.

Carven

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
