Charlotte Winter

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a historical gown. It shows an elegant, full-length gown from an earlier era with floral embroidery and lace accents. The gown has a fitted bodice with a rounded neckline and ruffles, and voluminous sleeves with lace trims. The skirt is wide with patterns of flowers and vines cascading down to the hem. The drawing does not include a head or feet, focusing solely on the garment.
