This is a drawing of a dress against a plain background. The dress has short sleeves, a cinched waist, and a full, layered skirt. The lines are minimal and clean. The sketch is centered on the canvas, with the dress highlighted by the contrast of the graphite lines against the blank background. There is no detailing inside the dress sections, creating an illustrative and conceptual feel.
