Ondine is a 1952 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This is a quick, loose drawing of a woman in a long, dark dress. The skirt is full and flowing, with a scalloped edge that looks almost like waves. She’s wearing a high-necked top with a choker and has her hands resting on her head, as if posing for a sketch. The name *Ondine* is written at the top—maybe it’s the dress’s name or a character. The lines are simple but confident, with quick brushstrokes that make the fabric look soft. Check out Carven—they designed this dress sketch in 1952.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
