1963
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Coeur d'artichaut is a 1963 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Turquoise, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, light-blue dress with short sleeves and a collar. She’s wearing a wide-brimmed hat and holding her coat open slightly. The lines are simple and confident, with quick strokes for the dress and hat. The title, *Coeur d’artichaut*, means "artichoke heart" — maybe a nod to the dress’s shape. The artist’s signature is small but clear in the corner. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
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.
