Okapi is a 1955 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This is a simple line drawing of a woman in a long dress. The dress has a fitted top with horizontal stripes and a flared skirt made of stacked layers. She wears a small hat, earrings, and high heels. The drawing is mostly in brown and beige tones. The name "Okapi" is written in the top-right corner, which might hint at something unusual about the design. The sketch looks like it was done quickly, focusing on shape over detail. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
