'Diane' 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 sleek, one-shoulder dress with draped fabric and a high slit. Her pose is confident, one hand on her hip, the other resting on her thigh. The lines are loose but precise, with quick strokes and some shading to show folds in the fabric. The name *Diane* is scrawled in the top-right corner, and the drawing looks like it was done fast—almost like a fashion sketch. The artist’s signature is small and tucked away. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching to see how shading works in drawings.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
