About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a sleek black outfit with a fitted jacket and a matching skirt. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands confidently with one hand resting on her hip. To the right, there’s a simple line drawing of the same jacket and skirt combo. The drawing uses bold, clean lines to highlight the fabric’s texture and shape. The outfit looks sharp and modern, almost like something from a fashion show. If you like this style, check out womenswear from the 1930s to 1950s.
