About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, light-gray coat with big pockets and a slightly flared skirt. Her hair is neatly styled, and she’s walking with one hand in her pocket. The coat has a simple collar and buttons near the wrists. The drawing is quick and loose, with some rough pencil sketches of the coat’s details in the corners. The name "Fabiola" is written in the top-right corner. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
