Dominant colour
Khéops is a 1959 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a bright red dress with a simple neckline and a slit up the side. She’s standing with one arm outstretched, as if mid-stride, and her hair is pulled back neatly. The dress is loose but fitted, with a slight flare at the hem, and she’s wearing low-heeled shoes. The small sketch in the corner looks like a flat pattern for the dress, showing how the fabric folds. The artist’s handwriting in the top right says *"Khéops"*—that’s the name of this drawing. If you like this style, check out Carven, the artist who made it.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
