Top Coat

Creighton Kay-Scott

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a coat design. It features a detailed illustration of a long coat with a wide collar and several buttons down the front. The coat has structured sleeves and a tailored fit that flares out slightly towards the hem. The main view shows the front and side of the coat in a three-quarter perspective. There is also a smaller, simplified sketch of the back of the coat in the upper right corner. The background is muted gray, contrasting with the cream color of the coat. The focus is on fashion design and garment construction.
