About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a simple black outfit. She’s wearing a short jacket with a collar and three buttons, paired with a knee-length skirt that flares out in wide pleats. Her hair is pulled back under a small cap, and she’s holding a small bag in one hand. The sketch includes a flat, back-view outline of the same outfit on the right side. This helps show how the jacket and skirt fit together. Look up Marie-Louise Carven next to see more of her fashion-focused work.
