About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, long coat with a checkered pattern. Her pants are straight and wide-legged, tucked into low-heeled shoes. The coat has a relaxed fit, with one hand resting on her hip. The drawing uses quick, sketchy lines to show fabric folds and movement. The word "Barcelone" is written in the corner—maybe a name or a location. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
