1949
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
'Créolle' is a 1949 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a high waist and a wide skirt. The dress is mostly pink with blue floral patterns near the hem. Her sleeves are puffy and decorated with the same blue designs. The woman’s pose is relaxed, with one hand resting on her hip. The sketch uses simple lines and flat colors, giving it a clean, graphic look. The artist signed it “Créolle” in the corner, which might hint at cultural influences.
