About this work

This is a simple black-and-white drawing of a woman walking. She’s wearing a knee-length dress with a bow at the waist, black heels, and her hair is pulled back neatly. The lines are clean, with just a few light strokes for shading. The drawing looks like it was made quickly, focusing on the shape of the dress and the woman’s posture. The style feels modern but not tied to any specific time. If you like this kind of fashion sketch, check out womenswear from the 1940s and 1950s.
