This is a drawing of two stylized bodices. The drawing features two women's bodices, one above the other. The top bodice is in a peach tone with a scooped neck, three-quarter length sleeves with buttoned cuffs, and a jagged hemline. Below, the second bodice is in a soft blue color with a similar jagged hemline, buttoned cuffs, and three-quarter length sleeves, but a slightly squared neckline. The lines are clean and the colors are subtle, depicting garment designs on a plain background.
