About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, dark-blue coat with big pockets and a belted waist. The coat has three buttons down the front, and her hands stick out in bright red gloves. Her shoes are simple, and her hair is pulled back neatly. The coat looks loose and comfortable, almost like a robe. The red gloves stand out against the blue, making them the focus. Check out the work of Marie-Louise Carven next to see more of her designs.
