1963
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Bouton d'or is a 1963 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Gold, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a black dress with bright yellow floral patterns. Her skirt flares out wide, and she wears yellow heels. One hand rests on her hip, the other points forward like she’s mid-stride. The small sketch in the corner looks like a simpler version of the same dress. The label says *Bouton d’or*—that’s French for "golden button," maybe a nod to the dress’s gold details. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
