Alicia is a 1964 by Carven, depicting Felt, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a tall, thin woman in a loose dress covered in big, bright flower shapes—greens, pinks, and yellows. Her hair is pulled up into a messy bun with a green flower stuck in it. One arm rests on her hip, and her other hand hangs loose. In the corner, there’s a tiny, quick sketch of a person sitting, almost like an afterthought. The dress looks like it’s made of a thick, textured fabric, maybe something stretchy or soft. The flowers on it are bold and flat, not realistic—just flat colors with no shading. Check out felt next to see how artists use real fabric in drawings.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
