Guipure
1959
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Guipure is a 1959 by Carven, depicting Bustier, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple gray dress with thin straps. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands with one leg slightly forward. The dress is straight and knee-length, with a small sketch of the dress’s front view showing buttons or fasteners down the middle. The word *Guipure* is written in the corner, which might refer to the lace-like detail on the dress. The drawing is loose and quick, with light pencil lines and a few strokes of color.

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
