Madame Butterfly is a 1963 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a long, bright red dress with a high slit up one side. She’s holding a single red rose in her right hand and has her hair styled in an updo with curls. The dress fits tightly at the top and flares out toward the floor, ending in pointed heels. The sketch is simple but full of detail—notice how the dress’s slit reveals part of her leg. The artist signed it in the corner with a small mark. Want to see more by this artist? Check out Carven.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
