Privauté is a 1963 by Carven, depicting Ensemble, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a dark blue dress with a fitted top and a flared skirt. She’s holding a small pink flower in one hand and has a neat updo hairstyle. The lines are loose but confident, and the background is plain white. The word *Privauté* is written at the top, which means "privacy" in French. The sketch includes a tiny side view of the dress and a quick sketch of the back, showing how it fits. Next, look up sleeveless to see how fashion changed in the 1960s.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
