'Palme d'Or'
1951
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
'Palme d'Or' is a 1951 by Carven, depicting Gold, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The image presents a drawing of a woman in a formal gown, with her hands on her hips and her head turned slightly to the right. The dress features a gray bodice adorned with gold accents and a full, pleated skirt in shades of black, gold, and brown. The woman's dark hair is styled in a short, sleek manner, and her facial expression is subtle. The background of the drawing is a light beige color, which provides a clean and neutral contrast to the subject's attire. This elegant depiction of a woman in a formal gown is reminiscent of the work of fashion designers who create exquisite evening wear, such as those found in the collections of the Museum of Ethnography.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
