Oriflamme is a 1955 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman from behind, wearing a bright red, sleeveless dress with a fitted waist and flared skirt. Her left hand rests on her hip, while her right arm stretches out slightly, as if mid-motion. The background is plain, letting the figure stand out clearly. The artist’s loose, confident lines focus on shape over detail, making the pose look natural. The name *Oriflamme* is scrawled in the corner—maybe a nickname for the drawing or the dress. Next, check out Carven, the artist behind this sketch.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
