About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a simple gray suit with a short skirt and a matching jacket. She has a small collar and her hair is pulled back neatly. One hand rests on her hip while the other hangs loosely at her side. The drawing includes a small sketch of the same outfit flat, like a pattern. The lines are loose and quick, giving it a casual feel. Next, look up Carven to see more of their fashion-inspired work.

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
