'Caméléone' is a 1951 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a wide skirt. Her pose is relaxed, one arm resting on her hip and the other hand near her face. The dress is greenish-brown with a hint of shimmer, and the fabric looks soft and loose. The name *Caméléone* is written in the corner, which might hint at the dress’s color-changing quality. The drawing feels quick and loose, like a first idea rather than a finished work. If you like this sketchy style, look up cross-hatching.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
