1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Caravelle is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a dark blue dress with a fitted jacket and a flared skirt. Her hair is short and neat, and she stands with one hand on her hip. Next to her is a simple line drawing of the same dress from the front. The artist used bold colors and loose brushstrokes to give the dress texture. The sketch feels quick and lively, like a fashion sketch rather than a detailed portrait. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
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.
