About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, knee-length dress with short sleeves and a belted waist. The fabric looks like a light plaid or checkered pattern, and the skirt has a gathered, flared shape. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The title *Lycée Molière* hints this might be a school uniform design—maybe for a French high school. The loose, quick lines suggest it was drawn fast, like a fashion sketch. Want to see more by this artist? Look up Carven.
