This is a drawing of a dress design. The drawing showcases an elegant, long gown which is detailed with intricate lacework along the edges and seams. The bodice fits snugly with a high neck and a button-up front. The skirt of the gown is full and completes with delicate patterns woven into the fabric. Adjacent to the full-size depiction, there is a smaller, simplified sketch of the back view of the dress. The illustration highlights both style and the intricacies of mid-century fashion design.
