Nuées is a 1952 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing black dress with a deep V-neck and three-quarter sleeves. The skirt flares out slightly, and she’s wearing simple black heels. The drawing is loose and quick, with light pencil strokes and some darker shading on the dress. The word *Nuées* (French for "clouds") might hint at the dress’s wispy, airy look—like fabric moving softly. The sketch feels like a quick study, not a finished work. Look up Carven to see more of this designer’s fashion drawings.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
