About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a bold floral pattern. Her outfit has a fitted top and a flared skirt, paired with simple high heels. The colors are mostly brown and beige, with a touch of red on her lips. The drawing is loose and quick, almost like a fashion sketch. The name "Marron glacé" is written at the top, which might hint at the dress’s color or style. Check out Carven to see more of this artist’s work.
