About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a simple, matching outfit—a short jacket and skirt with a dark red and black pattern. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands with one hand on her hip, wearing low-heeled shoes. To the right, there’s a flat sketch of the same outfit from the back. The outfit looks practical and stylish, like something from the mid-20th century. The artist signed it "Carven" in the corner, which might hint at who made it. If you like this style, look up womenswear to see how fashion has changed over time.
