Castagnette is a 1958 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple, elegant dress. The outfit has short sleeves, a fitted waist, and a flared skirt with a subtle pattern. She’s wearing low-heeled shoes and her hair is pulled back neatly. The lines are loose and confident, with quick brushstrokes that keep it light. The name *Castagnette* is written in the corner, but we don’t know what it means here. The drawing feels like a quick study of a fashion look—maybe for a magazine or a designer’s notebook.

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
