Modeste is a 1953 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a dark blue dress with a long coat and a bow at the chest. Her skirt flares out slightly, and she’s wearing low-heeled shoes. The lines are loose and quick, like a quick sketch rather than a detailed drawing. The name *Modeste* is written in the corner, which might be the dress’s name or the person’s. The artist used simple shapes and bold colors to show the outfit’s shape. Next, look up Carven to see more of their fashion-focused artwork.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
