'Nina' is a 1951 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman from behind, wearing a simple dress with a loose top and a flared skirt. Her arms are relaxed at her sides, and the fabric looks soft and flowing. The lines are bold and confident, with quick strokes that define the shape. The drawing is signed "Nina" in the corner, but we don’t know who she is. The artist focused on the dress’s shape and movement, not details. Next, look up Carven to see more of this artist’s work.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
