About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, blue plaid coat and matching skirt. The coat has a belt with three visible buttons, and the sleeves are slightly puffy. Next to her is a simple back view of the same outfit, drawn in light brown lines. The artist labeled it *"Port Said"* in the top corner—maybe a place or a mood. The plaid pattern looks like it’s made with quick, loose brushstrokes. If you like this style, check out Carven for more fashion sketches.
