About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, A-line dress with a short cape. The dress has a simple neckline and thin straps, with a few blue floral brushstrokes down the skirt. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she walks with one hand resting on her hip. On the right side of the paper, there’s a quick outline of the dress’s back view. The artist’s loose, confident lines make the drawing feel quick and lively. The name *Funanbule* is written in the corner, but no other details are given. Check out Marie-Louise Carven for more of her fashion sketches.
