About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a dark blue coat with a high collar and black gloves. She stands with one hand resting on her hip, wearing a short skirt and heels. In the corner, a rougher outline of a seated woman with bare shoulders is drawn quickly. The word *Voyage* is scrawled next to the sketch, maybe hinting at travel or movement. The two figures look like they’re part of the same study, but one is polished while the other is rough. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
