About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple brown dress with a straight skirt and a matching top. Her pose is relaxed, with one hand on her hip and the other resting by her side. The drawing is loose and quick, with light pencil lines and a few watercolor washes for shading. The small side sketch of the dress suggests this is a design study, focusing on the shape and fit. The brown color and clean lines give it a modern, understated look. Look up Carven to see more of this artist’s fashion sketches.
