Chasse gardée is a 1952 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, striped dress with a belt and a tall, feathered hat. Her arms are outstretched, holding what looks like a leaf or branch in each hand. The colors are mostly earthy browns and greens, with quick, sketchy lines. The title *Chasse gardée* (which means "protected hunt") hints this might be a costume for a performance or play. The drawing feels quick and lively, like a first idea rather than a finished work. Check out the Museum of Ethnography to see more of this artist’s sketches.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
