About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, knee-length dress with short sleeves and a tied bow at the waist. The fabric looks smooth and slightly shiny, in a pale blue-green color. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she stands with one hand resting at her side. The drawing includes a small sketch of the dress from the back, showing how the tie would look there. The lines are clean but not overly detailed, focusing on the shape and fit of the clothing. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion-focused artwork.
