About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, knee-length dress with a bow at the neck. The dress has a few scattered pink and green floral shapes on a light background. The lines are loose and quick, almost like a quick sketch. In the corner, there’s a tiny outline of the dress from the back. The name "Bailly" is written in the top-right corner, but we don’t know who that refers to. The drawing looks like it was made fast, with just enough detail to show the shape and style. If you like this kind of sketchy fashion drawing, look up Marie-Louise Carven.
