Accordéon is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a simple, stylized figure walking. The person wears a dark, long-sleeved dress with a belt at the waist and a flared skirt that hits just above the ankles. The lines are loose and quick, with the dress’s fabric drawn as clean, sharp folds. The word *"Accordéon"* is scrawled in the corner—likely the title, hinting at the dress’s shape resembling an accordion’s folds. The drawing feels more like a quick fashion note than a polished work. If you like this sketchy style, look up cross-hatching next.
