1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Antilles is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a floral pattern of browns and oranges. The dress has a fitted bodice with puffed sleeves and a wide, flared skirt. Below, there’s a simple line drawing of the same dress from the front. The sketch is signed “Antilles” in the corner, and the artist used loose, quick brushstrokes for the colors. The lines are confident but not overly detailed, giving the drawing a lively feel. 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.
