About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a sleek black suit with a fitted jacket and a short skirt. Her hair is styled neatly, and she stands with one hand on her hip. The jacket has sharp lines and a small collar, while the skirt hits just above the knee. The sketch includes a simple outline of the jacket on the right side, almost like a pattern draft. The artist used clean, bold lines and left some areas plain, focusing on the outfit’s shape. Look up Carven next to see more of their fashion-focused artwork.

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
