Black crepe evening dress with a floor-length skirt, rose taffeta sash belt, and two large wine colored velvet flowers on the chest. Sketch (in partial color) also includes a small view of the back of the dress that shows that the small pink shoulder straps extend into a low v-neckline in the back and tie into a large bow at the waist. Model appears to be smoking a cigarette.
