Angkor is a 1959 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, black dress with a fitted top and a flared skirt. Her hands rest on her hips, and she wears simple heels. To the right, there’s a small drawing of the dress’s back view, showing how it fits. The name *Angkor* is written in the corner—likely a reference, not the woman’s name. The style looks like a quick fashion study, maybe for a designer. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
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.
