Ontario is a 1962 by Carven, depicting womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a simple black dress and skirt. Her hair is pulled up in a loose bun, and she stands with one leg slightly forward. The lines are clean and confident, with just a few quick strokes for shading. The outfit looks like something from the mid-20th century—sleek and practical. The sketch feels like it was made fast, almost like a quick note to remember the design. Want to see more like this? Check out womenswear in fashion history.
