Lola Montès is a 1958 by Carven, depicting Satin, 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 fitted bodice and a flared skirt. The dress has a bow at the neck and black trim on the sleeves. Her hair is short, and she’s wearing black heels. To the right, there’s a simple line drawing of the dress’s pattern. The red color stands out against the plain background, making the dress look bold. The artist wrote “Lola Montès” and “changer satin” (which means “change satin”) on the page. If you like this style, look up satin to see how fabric choices shape fashion.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
