Capucine is a 1953 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman from behind, wearing a bright orange coat that flares out at the knees. Her hair is short and dark, and she’s holding her coat closed at the neck. The lines are loose and quick, with some shading under the coat’s collar. The word *Capucine* is written at the top—maybe the name of the coat or the person. The sketch feels like a quick study, not a finished portrait. Look up Carven to see more of their fashion sketches.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
