O'Connell is a 1955 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, dark plaid outfit. She’s wearing a short jacket with big buttons and a matching pleated skirt that hits just above her ankles. Her hair is drawn as a smooth, round shape, and she holds a small object in her left hand. The drawing is simple but catches the way fabric folds and drapes. The artist used quick, confident lines to show the outfit’s shape without too much detail. Next, look up womenswear to see how clothing like this fit into fashion history.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
