Myrtille is a 1967 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a long navy coat with big pockets and a matching hat. The coat is simple but has a few loose brushstrokes, like it’s sketched quickly. Her face is barely there—just a few lines for eyes and a hint of a mouth. The name *Myrtille* is written in the corner, which might be the outfit’s name or the woman’s. The coat looks like something you’d wear in the city, not a fancy ballgown. If you like this style, check out womenswear from the 1950s for more details.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
