About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, dark outfit with wide shoulders and a long, flared skirt. Her sleeves are puffy at the shoulders, and she wears gloves with a red spot on one finger. The drawing is quick and simple, with clean lines and a light beige background. The outfit looks like it’s from the 1920s or 1930s—think elegant but not stiff. The artist focused on the shape and flow of the clothes, not tiny details. Check out Carven to see more of their fashion designs.
