About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a fitted jacket and flared skirt. The jacket has a bold geometric pattern on the chest, while the skirt flares out in soft lines. Her pose is simple—one arm rests at her side, the other slightly bent. The drawing includes a small side view of the skirt’s shape, almost like a quick note. The artist’s signature, *Marie-Louise Carven*, is scrawled in the corner. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion designs.
