This is a drawing of a Victorian-style dress. The drawing depicts a full-length, long-sleeved dress with a high collar, all in a muted purple color. The dress features intricate lace detailing around the collar and the front-black floral motifs and embellishments accent the collar and midsection. The sleeves are wide, with a decorative lace trim that echoes the collar detailing. In the background, there is a faint outline of the dress viewed from the back, showing how the fabric and embellishments would appear, completing the garment design.
