About this work

This sketch shows a simple black dress with short sleeves and a fitted waist. The fabric looks smooth, with a slight flare at the knee. There’s a small drawing of the dress’s back view on the right side. The artist used quick, clean lines to show the dress’s shape and movement. The number "39" and the word "Noria" are written in the corner, maybe as a label or title. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
