Dominant colour
Amélie is a 1957 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Stone, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, sleeveless dress with a big bow at the waist. The fabric has a splashy pattern of blues and greens, and the dress flares out slightly at the bottom. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s walking with one foot slightly ahead. In the corner, there’s a smaller, simpler drawing of the same woman holding a bag. The name *Amélie* is written in the top right corner, like a label. The lines are quick and confident, almost like a fashion sketch—less about detail, more about movement and style. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
Marie-Louise Carven (31 August 1909 – 8 June 2015), born Carmen de Tommaso, was a French fashion designer who founded the house of Carven in 1945.
