About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a bright green dress. The dress has a deep V-neck and a fitted waist with a black belt. The skirt is long and flared, with black swirls and leaves drawn on it. Her pose is relaxed, with one hand resting on her chest. The name "Galina" is written in the top-right corner, which might be the dress’s design name. The drawing uses loose, quick lines to show fabric and movement. Check out Carven to see more of this designer’s work.
