'Taraubant' is a 1949 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This is a quick, loose drawing of a woman in a long red dress. The dress has dark floral patterns near the hem and a simple neckline. The skirt is wide and flowing, while the arms are barely sketched in. The background is plain, and the whole thing looks like it was done fast with a pencil or marker. The artist signed it "Carven" in the corner, which might mean it’s a sketch for fashion. The dress style looks like something from the 1940s, but it’s hard to tell for sure. If you like this style, check out Carven for more of their work.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
