Limon
1959
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Limon is a 1959 by Carven, depicting Bead, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple, fitted suit with short sleeves and a matching skirt. The outfit has a subtle check pattern and three small buttons down the front. Her hair is styled in a short, neat updo, and she’s wearing low-heeled shoes. The drawing includes a small flat sketch of the jacket on the right side, like a pattern draft. The artist signed it “Limon” in the corner. Next, look up cross-hatching to see how artists build shading with lines.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
