1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Cuevas 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 simple, elegant dress. The top is black with a round neckline, and the skirt is full and light-colored with three small bows near the hem. Her hair is styled neatly, and she stands with one leg slightly forward. To the right, there’s a side view of the same dress, showing its shape from behind. The drawing uses quick, loose lines and soft shading to suggest fabric and movement. The bows and the way the skirt flares out are small but noticeable details. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next.
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.
