About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a wide-brimmed hat. The dress has a geometric pattern and a high slit on one side, revealing her leg. She wears gloves and stands confidently, one hand resting on her hip. The lines are loose but precise, with shading that gives the fabric texture. The dress style looks like something from the 1940s or 1950s, with a mix of elegance and movement. The name "Carven" is written at the top, which might be the artist’s signature. If you like this fashion sketch, look up Carven for more designs.
