Acacia is a 1951 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, dark suit with wide shoulders and a high collar. Her pants are gathered at the ankle, and she’s standing with one hand in her pocket. The lines are simple and confident, with quick strokes for the face and hands. The name *Acacia* is written at the top—maybe the outfit’s name or a code. The artist’s initials, *C.R.*, are signed in the corner, but we know it’s by Carven. Next, look up Carven to see more of their bold fashion designs.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
