About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a long, black-and-white dress with a wide skirt and puffed sleeves. She wears a big hat and holds her skirt slightly off the ground. To the right, there’s a simple line drawing of the same dress from the front, with no face or extra details. The sketch uses quick, loose lines—no shading, just flat colors and outlines. The woman’s pose is confident, like she’s walking down a runway. Next, check out Carven to see more of this artist’s bold fashion designs.
