1952
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Caprine is a 1952 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, black dress with bright stripes on the sleeves. She’s leaning on a railing, wearing a white headband and simple shoes. The lines are quick and confident, with some shading on her arms and skirt. The name *Caprine* is scrawled at the top—maybe a nickname for the model or the outfit. The drawing feels like a quick study, not a polished work. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
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.
