This is a drawing of a violet long-sleeved garment. The drawing shows a design of a top with a fitted bodice and full, rounded sleeves. The top is colored in shades of violet with carefully shaded areas to suggest the texture and folds of fabric. A line of matching buttons runs down the front. In the background, a faint sketch shows the back view of the top, outlining its shape and structure. The design is depicted on a plain background.
