Madeleine is a 1958 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, knee-length dress with a big, flared skirt. The dress is dark blue with a lighter, cloudy pattern, and it has a simple collar and three buttons down the front. She’s wearing a matching headpiece and pointed shoes. To the right, there’s a quick sketch of the dress from the back, showing the shape of the skirt. The name *Madeleine* is written at the top, which might be the dress’s name or the model’s. The drawing looks like it was done quickly, with loose brushstrokes and some pencil lines. Check out Carven to see more of their fashion sketches.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
