Manteau marron is a 1967 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a long, dark brown coat with a high collar and a belted waist. Her hair is styled in a loose bun, and she wears simple gold earrings. The coat has clean lines and a slight A-line shape, with a small sketch of the coat’s back view in the corner. The coat’s belt and the woman’s long legs stand out against the plain background. The artist used loose, quick lines to suggest fabric and movement. Check out the technique: cross-hatching to see how artists build texture with lines.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
