Fraîcheur is a 1953 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a flowing light-blue dress. The dress has a fitted bodice with a square neckline and short puffed sleeves. The skirt flares out wide, almost like a bell, and the fabric looks soft and airy. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The word *Fraîcheur* (French for "freshness") is written in the corner, hinting this might be about the dress’s light, breezy feel. The loose, sketchy lines give it a quick, almost hand-drawn look. Look up Carven next to see more of their fashion designs.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
