About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a bold, two-toned suit with a dark blue jacket and matching pants. The jacket has a bright, abstract pattern in greens and blues, and the pants are solid dark blue. She’s wearing a round hat, red lipstick, and simple black heels. The drawing is loose and quick, with some rough lines and a small back-view sketch in the corner. The handwritten note “Neferka” in the top corner hints at the design’s name, but the style feels modern and playful. The mix of colors and shapes makes the outfit look fresh and stylish. If you like this sketch, check out Carven for more fashion-focused art.
