Corail d'or is a 1952 by Carven, depicting Coral, 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. The dress is a mix of light brown and gold, with a strapless top and a draped bodice. Her arms are crossed in front of her, and the lines are loose and quick, like a quick sketch. The title, *Corail d’or*, hints at gold and coral colors—maybe the dress’s shimmer or the name’s meaning. The drawing feels like it was done fast, with light pencil strokes and watercolor washes. Next, check out Carven—this artist designed many famous clothes and costumes.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
