Crocus is a 1951 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, knee-length dress covered in small white dots. She wears a matching jacket with puffed sleeves and holds a bright yellow flower in one hand. Her hair is pulled back under a hat, and she stands confidently with one hand on her hip. The sketch is quick and loose, almost like a fashion sketch. The dots on her dress look like they were drawn fast, maybe to show texture without detail. If you like this style, look up Marie-Louise Carven.
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.
