1963
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Canard sauvage is a 1963 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman from the back, wearing a dark green coat, hat, and skirt. Her posture is relaxed, with one hand tucked into her pocket. The lines are loose and confident, focusing on shape over detail. The artist signed it "Carven" in the corner, which matches the name Marie-Louise Carven. The drawing feels quick, like it was made in one go. Next, check out womenswear from the 1930s to see how clothes like this fit into fashion history.
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.
