From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Alhambra is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The image features a woman in a brown dress, accompanied by a sketch of a white garment to her right. The woman's attire consists of a sleeveless, knee-length dress with a gathered waist, paired with white gloves that extend above her elbows and heels. Her hair is styled in a short, curly bob. The background of the image is a light beige color. A notable detail in the image is the contrast between the woman's dark dress and the white sketch beside her, which appears to be a design for a different garment. This juxtaposition highlights the artistic process of fashion design. For more information on the artist behind this work, explore the profile of Marie-Louise Carven.
