Opium is a 1955 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing blue dress with a dark floral pattern. The dress has thin straps and a draped neckline, falling just above the knees. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The word "Opium" is written in the corner, hinting at a possible name for the dress design. The loose, quick lines suggest it might be a fashion study rather than a finished portrait. Look up Carven to see more of their fashion sketches.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
