'Maria' is a 1951 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This is a simple line drawing of a woman in a dark blue dress. The dress has a fitted bodice with a pointed collar, lace trim at the neckline, and three small buttons. The skirt flares out slightly at the knee, and her hands rest on her hips. The lines are loose but confident, with quick strokes for the hair and shadow. The name *Maria* is scrawled in the corner—likely the dress’s model or the designer’s note. The sketch feels like a quick study, maybe for a fashion house.

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
