About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a stylish outfit. She’s wearing a wide-brimmed hat, a sheer dress with dark stripes, and a fur trim at the bottom. Her sleeves are puffy and white, and she has a bow tied at her waist. The background is plain, so all the focus is on her clothes. The sketch looks like it was done quickly, with loose lines and bold colors. The text at the bottom describes the outfit in French, naming parts like the "organdy" fabric and "corsage" (that’s the bodice). Want to see more?
