This sketch shows a woman in a dark blue outfit with a fitted jacket and a flared skirt. She wears a small hat, gloves, and holds a purse in one hand. The lines are loose and confident, with quick strokes for the face and hands. The title *Calypso* is written in the top right corner. The drawing feels simple but stylish, focusing on shape and movement over detail. Next, look up Marie-Louise Carven, the artist who made this sketch.
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.
