'Tulipe' is a 1949 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a wide skirt. The dress has a simple bow at the neck and a pattern of swirls and flowers near the waist. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she’s posed with one arm resting on her hip. The dress looks light and airy, almost like it’s made of layers of fabric. The artist used quick, confident lines to draw the folds and movement in the skirt. Try looking up cross-hatching to see how artists create depth with lines.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
