About this work

The image depicts a drawing of a woman wearing a navy blue dress with two large pockets on the skirt. The dress has a high neckline and a zipper down the front, and the woman is shown in profile, facing to the left. Her right arm is bent at the elbow, and her hand is raised to her chin. The woman's hair is styled in a short bob, and she is wearing high heels. The background of the drawing is a light beige color, which provides a subtle contrast to the darker tones of the dress. This drawing is a great example of the work of Marie-Louise Carven, an artist known for her fashion illustrations.
