1952
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Brindille is a 1952 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 sleek, dark outfit with sharp lines. Her jacket is draped over one arm, and her skirt falls straight to her ankles. A small belt cinches her waist, and her hair is pulled back under a dark headband. The drawing is loose but precise, with quick strokes. The name *Brindille* is written in the corner—maybe the outfit’s nickname. The artist used a simple but effective way to show fabric folds. Check out cross-hatching to see how artists create texture 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.
