Description

A full-length studio portrait features a slender, dark-skinned woman posing in a vintage haute couture dress. The dress is black and features a lacy bodice. Its skirt is voluminous, resembling a skirt and petticoat combination. Her hair is styled in a dark afro. Red lipstick provides a bold contrast to her skin tone and dress. She poses with one hand on her hip. The backdrop is a simple, light grey, accentuating the dark tones of her attire. The lighting emphasizes the sculptural quality of the dress.
