Robe d'un soir is a 1956 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a sleek evening gown. The dress has a fitted bodice with thin straps and a row of small, swirled details. The skirt flares out wide, with soft, wavy lines suggesting movement. The title *Robe d’un soir* means "evening dress"—this was clearly meant for a night out. The loose, sketchy lines focus on shape over detail, letting the fabric’s flow shine. Try looking up cross-hatching to see how artists build texture with lines.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
