Emilie is a 1956 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, dark blue dress with a high waist and a flared skirt. Her arms are outstretched, and she’s wearing a simple headpiece. The drawing is quick and rough, with bold lines and little shading. The name *Emilie* is written in the corner, but we don’t know if that’s the woman’s name or the dress’s. The style looks like it could be from the early 1900s, but no one’s sure. If you like this sketchy style, look up cross-hatching.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
