Paquerette is a 1951 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 dress with a deep V-neck and a wide belt. She’s holding a wide-brimmed hat over her head, and her arms are stretched out. The dress has a flowing skirt, and she’s wearing gloves. The drawing is simple, with bold black lines and a few light touches for shading. The name *Paquerette* is signed in the corner, and the style looks like it’s from a fashion sketchbook. The artist focused on the dress’s shape and movement, not details.
