1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Courbet 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 brown coat with big lapels and two pockets. Her hair is short and neat, and she’s standing sideways. Next to her is a simple line drawing of the same coat, front view. The artist signed it “Courbet” by mistake—it’s actually by Marie-Louise Carven. The drawing is loose and quick, like a fashion sketch. Check out 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.
