About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple blue dress with a tied neckline and matching blue tie. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she wears small earrings and a single bracelet. To the right, there’s a quick sketch of the dress from the back. The name *Méribel* is written in the corner—likely a reference to a place or design. The artist signed it with an initial, but the style looks loose and fast, like a quick idea rather than a polished work. Next, look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
