About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, sleeveless dress with a fitted bodice and a flared skirt. The dress has a subtle pattern of small shapes, and the skirt is cut into sharp, even layers. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she wears low-heeled shoes. The drawing includes a small flat sketch of the dress on the right, showing the shape without fabric details. The artist’s name, *Carven*, is signed in the top-right corner. Next, look up Carven to see more of their fashion designs.
