About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, black coat with a high collar and flared skirt. Her hair is styled in a short, curly updo, and she holds a small purse. In the corner, there’s a simple line drawing of the same coat, folded flat. The artist used bold black lines and minimal shading to show the coat’s shape and fabric. The drawing feels quick and stylish, like a fashion sketch. Check out more by Marie-Louise Carven.
