Oursin is a 1967 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long black coat with a big hat. The coat has a belt at the waist and flares out at the bottom. Her legs are long and straight, and the lines are loose and quick—almost like a quick sketch. The name *Oursin* (which means "sea urchin" in French) might hint at something unexpected in the design. The drawing feels simple but confident, with bold black shapes against a light background. If you like this style, check out more by the artist Carven.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
