'Profondeur' is a 1949 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a simple, flowing dress with a wide skirt and a draped top. Her arms are outstretched, and she’s standing on one leg, giving a sense of movement. The lines are loose and confident, with quick, sketchy strokes that feel almost like a quick study. The dress looks modern for its time, with clean lines and a relaxed fit. The artist’s signature, *Carven*, is written in the corner—this was likely a fashion sketch rather than a formal portrait. If you like this style, check out Carven for more work in fashion design.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
