About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a light blue outfit walking sideways. The dress has a short jacket with a bow at the collar and a long, flared skirt. Next to her is a smaller sketch of the same outfit, facing forward. The artist signed it "Messidor" in the corner—likely a nickname or brand name. The lines are simple and confident, focusing on the shape and flow of the fabric. Look up Carven to see more of this artist’s work.
