Dress

Mary E. Humes

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a dress design. The main image shows a dress with a fitted bodice, short puffed sleeves, and a high neckline. The dress flows to the floor with gentle pleats and has a hemline with a band. A smaller sketch in the upper right corner shows a basic outline, labeled "back view." The drawing showcases the structure and fabric texture of the dress design.
