Ibis is a 1960 by Carven, depicting womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, knee-length dress with a floral pattern in soft pinks and greens. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she stands with one leg slightly forward. The lines are quick and simple, with just enough detail to show the dress’s shape and fabric. The drawing includes a small sketch of the dress’s back view in the corner, showing how it would look from behind. The artist used light pencil strokes, leaving some areas blank to focus on the main shape. Look up womenswear to see how fashion sketches like this one influenced real clothing designs.
