Violaine is a 1958 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, purple dress with a speckled pattern. The skirt flares wide, and the top has short sleeves and a simple neckline. Next to her is a quick outline of the same dress from the back, showing a tie at the waist. The name "Violaine" is written in the corner, which might be the dress’s name. The artist used quick, confident strokes to show fabric and movement. 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.
