'Accordée' is a 1949 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a dark, flowing dress with ruffles at the neck, sleeves, and hem. The fabric looks soft and layered, with a slight sheen. Her posture is relaxed, one hand resting on her hip, the other holding a small object. The sketch is simple but full of detail in the folds and texture of the dress. It’s signed “Accordée” in the corner, which might be the name of the design. Look up Carven to see more of this artist’s fashion sketches.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
