Bleu de Chine is a 1963 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This is a simple line drawing of a woman in a knee-length dress. The dress is a solid dark blue with long sleeves and a slight flare at the bottom. She’s wearing black heels and her hair is pulled up in a loose bun. The background is just a plain white space. The title *Bleu de Chine* means "China blue," which was a popular dye color back then. The drawing looks clean and straightforward, like a sketch for a fashion design. If you like this style, check out more of Carven’s work.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
