About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, elegant outfit. She wears a light-colored jacket with a collar and buttons, paired with a long, flared skirt. Her hair is short and neat, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The drawing is loose and quick, with soft shading to show folds in the fabric. The word "Valse" is written in the corner, which might hint at a connection to dance or movement. Next, look up Carven to see more of their fashion sketches.
