Chat sauvage is a 1952 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 loose, red dress with a high collar and long sleeves. Her skirt flares out slightly, and she’s striking a pose with one arm stretched out and the other hand on her hip. The lines are quick and confident, with some shading to show folds in the fabric. The name *Chat sauvage* is written at the top—it might refer to the dress or the pose. The sketch looks like it was done fast, maybe for fashion work. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her style.
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.
