Psyché
1957
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Psyché is a 1957 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple purple dress with a matching cape. The cape has a row of blue and green flowers down the front. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s standing sideways with one hand resting on her hip. In the corner, there’s a quick sketch of another dress shape. The flowers on the cape look like they’re stitched on, not painted. The drawing is loose and quick, almost like a fashion sketch. Look up Carven next—they were known for blending art and clothing design.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
