About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, long-sleeve shirt and wide-leg pants, both in a checkered pattern. Her hands rest on her hips, and she wears simple shoes with a thick heel. The drawing is quick and loose, with some areas shaded lightly. The outfit looks practical yet stylish, maybe for everyday wear. The name "Vanille" is scribbled in the corner, which might be the design’s code name. If you like this style, check out Carven for more fashion sketches.
