Pensionnaire is a 1958 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman walking sideways, holding a small book or notebook in one hand. She wears a short-sleeved dress with a dark green plaid pattern and a round collar. The skirt is full and flared, ending just above her knees. To the right, there’s a simple line drawing of the same dress, showing its shape from the front. The plaid fabric looks textured, with thick black and green lines forming squares. The woman’s hair is pulled back neatly, and her shoes are simple and low-heeled. The whole scene feels clean and straightforward, like a sketch for a fashion design. If this style of dress interests you, look up womenswear.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
