Serpentin is a 1952 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple pose, standing with one hand on her hip. She wears a dark, textured jacket with a matching skirt that has pockets. Her shoes are low and plain, and her hair is pulled back neatly. The drawing uses quick, loose lines to suggest fabric and shape. The word "Serpentin" is written at the top, which might hint at the style or name of the outfit. Look up Carven to see more of this artist’s work.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
