About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a sleek black outfit with long sleeves and a high neckline. She’s wearing a headband, gloves, and pointed shoes with a slight heel. The lines are simple and confident, with just a few quick strokes for details like the gloves and shoes. The drawing focuses on the outfit’s clean, modern look—no extra patterns or colors. The artist kept it minimal, letting the shape of the clothes stand out. Check out Carven for more fashion-inspired art.
