Dress

Nancy Crimi

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a patterned dress design. The image features a garment that consists of a long dress with a fitted bodice and full skirt made from fabric with a repeating geometric pattern in soft colors. The dress has long sleeves and is adorned with matching fabric details, creating a layered and textured appearance. The left side of the image includes a small outline sketch of the dress design, providing a simplified view of the garment's structure and form. The combination of colored detail and line drawing offers both a decorative and technical perspective of the dress.
