Dominant colour
Bagon is a 1959 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a simple black dress with a loose fit and long sleeves. The fabric has a textured look, drawn with quick, angled lines. Next to it, a matching jacket is shown from the back, also in black. The figure has a smooth, rounded head and no facial features. The drawing uses a technique where lots of small lines create shading instead of solid colors. It’s like tracing shadows with pencil strokes. Check out cross-hatching to see how artists build depth with lines.
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.
