'Sorcier' is a 1949 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, striped suit with wide lapels and a belted waist. The lines are simple but confident, with quick strokes for the jacket and pants. The stripes run vertically, and the sleeves are slightly puffy at the shoulders. The drawing’s speed suggests it might be a quick study for a fashion design. The word *"Sorcier"* is scribbled in the corner—maybe a nickname for the outfit. Next, look up Carven to see more of their fashion sketches.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
