Saïgon
1959
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Saïgon is a 1959 by Carven, depicting Button, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a simple, stylized figure wearing a dark blue plaid suit with a short skirt and a matching jacket. The jacket has two buttons down the front and a small pocket on the chest. One hand rests on the hip, and the figure wears low-heeled shoes. The sketch includes a small diagram of the jacket’s back view, showing how the plaid pattern continues there. The handwritten label in the corner reads *"Saïgon."* Look up Carven to see more of this artist’s fashion sketches.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
