About this work

This drawing shows two women in simple black outfits. One stands tall in a coat and pants, holding a small bag. The other sits, wearing a sleeveless dress with a zipper down the front. Both have clean lines and a loose, sketchy style. The artist’s quick strokes focus on shapes, not details. The black ink stands out against the light background, making the clothes look bold and modern. Next, check out Carven to see more of their fashion-inspired work.
