Thuya is a 1959 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman walking, dressed in a fitted outfit with a short jacket and a flared, checkered skirt. Her hair is pulled back, and she wears simple black heels. The lines are loose and confident, with bold black outlines and quick brushstrokes for color. The checkered pattern on her skirt looks like it’s made of small, overlapping shapes—almost like stacked blocks. The drawing feels quick, like it was done in one go.

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
