1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Bougainvilliers 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 bright pink dress with a long coat and a wide skirt. The coat has big sleeves and a fur collar. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s standing with one foot slightly forward. The name "Bougainvilliers" is written at the top—maybe the dress’s name. The artist used loose, quick lines to draw the clothes, not worrying about tiny details. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
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.
