About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a long, dark blue coat with brown checkered patches on the sleeves and front. She wears a matching brown hat and carries a small bag. The coat has big buttons down the front and a fur-lined collar. Next to her is a quick sketch of the coat alone, showing its shape. The artist focused on clean lines and simple shapes, making the outfit look sharp and stylish. The checkered pattern adds a small but noticeable detail to the coat’s design. If you like this style, look up Marie-Louise Carven for more of her fashion work.
