About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a bright red coat with a simple collar and two pockets. The coat is long and loose, with a clean line down the front. Next to her is a sketch of the same coat in a lighter color, showing its shape more clearly. The handwriting in the corner says "Confucius," which might be a name for this design. The lines are bold and confident, with no shading or extra details. If you like this style, check out Carven for more fashion sketches.
