Bougainvilliers is a 1951 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, purple suit with big pockets and rolled sleeves. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands with one hand on her hip. The lines are simple but confident, with quick strokes for the fabric folds. The name *Carven* is signed in the corner—likely the artist. The drawing feels like a quick study for a fashion design, not a finished portrait. Want to see more by this designer? Look up Carven.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
