About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a knee-length dress with bold black-and-gray floral patterns and peach accents. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she stands with one leg slightly forward, wearing simple heels. To the right, a flat line drawing of the same dress is shown from the back, with button details on the collar and waist. The artist’s loose, confident lines make the outfit look both stylish and easy to wear. The peach highlights stand out against the darker fabric, giving it a fresh, lively feel. Next, check out Carven to see more of their fashion-forward designs.
