Belphégor is a 1956 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 simple black outfit. She’s wearing a fitted jacket with a belt, a full skirt, and low-heeled shoes. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s holding a small bag in one hand. The drawing is loose and quick, with watercolor shading to show shadows. The name *Belphégor* is scrawled in the corner—maybe the outfit’s name or a code.
