'Eminence' is a 1951 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, dark red coat with a high collar and a matching skirt. She’s holding a small purse in one hand and a folded piece of paper or ticket in the other. The coat has a few decorative buttons and a belt with a buckle. The lines are loose and quick, giving it a sketchy, unfinished look. The drawing is signed “Eminence” in the corner, which might be the name of the outfit or the artist’s note. The style feels modern but simple, focusing on the shape of the clothes rather than details. If you like this sketch, look up Carven to see more of their work.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
