About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, flowing dress. The top is a light pink with a deep V-neck and short sleeves. The skirt is long, sheer, and dotted with tiny pink circles. She’s holding a small purse in one hand and wearing dark heels. The title “Macarons” might hint at the dress’s pattern—those circles look like the sweet pastries. The drawing is loose and quick, with soft lines and no extra details. If you like this style, check out Carven for more fashion sketches.
