About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a loose, knee-length coat with short sleeves and a collar. The coat is a muted gray with a slightly darker trim, and it falls straight from the shoulders. Her hair is styled in a short, voluminous bouffant, and she stands confidently with one hand in her pocket. The coat’s simple lines and soft shading suggest it’s meant to look effortless. The small sketch in the corner shows the coat folded, which might hint at how it’s designed to wear or store. Look up Carven to see more of their fashion designs.
