About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a simple, elegant dress. The top is black with a row of red flowers on a green stem down the front. The skirt is white with the same floral pattern, but lighter and more faded. She’s wearing black heels and her hair is pulled back neatly. The sketch uses loose, quick lines—almost like a fashion sketch. The flowers aren’t detailed; they’re just simple shapes to suggest the pattern. Next, look up Carven to see more of their work.
