'Pesage' is a 1949 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with off-the-shoulder sleeves. Her skirt has a loose, draped look, and she’s wearing a wide-brimmed hat. The lines are simple and loose, with just enough detail to show the fabric’s folds and the shape of her body. The artist used quick, confident strokes—no heavy shading, just light pencil marks. The dress has a pattern of small shapes, but it’s more about the movement of the fabric than the details. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
