1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Charmille is a 1956 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 simple, flowing dress with a high waist and flared skirt. Her arms are crossed loosely, and the jacket fits snugly at the shoulders. The whole drawing is done in soft, warm colors—mostly peach and brown—with quick, confident lines. The name *Charmille* is written at the top, likely the dress’s design name. The sketch feels quick and loose, like a fashion idea jotted down fast. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
