Ravana is a 1959 by Carven, depicting belt, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This image is a drawing of a woman wearing a plaid dress. The dress has a collar and buttons down the front, and it appears to be belted at the waist. The woman is standing with her left hand on her hip, and her right arm is bent at the elbow. The drawing is done in a loose, sketchy style, with bold lines and minimal shading. The woman's face is not fully rendered, but her features are suggested by a few quick strokes. The overall effect of the drawing is one of elegance and sophistication, capturing the essence of a stylish woman from a bygone era. You might also enjoy the work of artist Carven.
