About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, striped coat with big pockets and a belted waist. The coat is loose but fitted, drawn in quick, light lines. Her hair is short, and she wears gloves, standing with one hand on her hip. The drawing has a loose, sketchy feel—like it was done fast, maybe for a fashion idea. The name "Simbad" is scrawled in the corner, but it’s unclear what that means. If you like this style, check out Carven.
