Albatros is a 1952 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman from behind in a long, flowing black dress. The dress has wide, puffy sleeves covered in small black dots. The skirt flares out dramatically, almost like a fan. The background is plain, so all the focus stays on the outfit. The name *Albatros* is written in the top corner—maybe it’s the dress’s name. The artist used quick, loose lines to sketch the fabric, making it look both simple and stylish. If you like this kind of fashion drawing, check out womenswear from the 1950s next.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
