Illusion is a 1958 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, dark dress with a square neckline and a small flower pinned at the waist. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands sideways, one hand resting on her hip. To the left, there’s a quick, loose drawing of the same dress from the back, showing how it drapes. The word *Illusion* is written in the corner—maybe hinting at how the dress looks different from front and back. The lines are simple but confident, with some shading to show folds. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
