About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a sleek, dark outfit with a fitted jacket and a matching skirt. The fabric looks textured, with visible lines running through it. She’s wearing low-heeled shoes and has a rounded hairdo. The drawing includes a simple back view of the jacket, showing how it would look from behind. The artist’s handwriting in the corner reads “Kem-61,” which might hint at the design’s name or year. If you like this style, look up Carven for more fashion-focused art.
