Désert is a 1959 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows two women in simple, clean lines. One wears a light gray coat with a belt and pockets, holding a folded paper. The other stands beside a loose jacket with a bold pattern. The artist used loose, confident strokes—no tiny details, just shapes and shadows. The paper says "Désert," which might hint at a name or style. The coats look practical, not fancy, with a focus on fit and fabric. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven to see how her work shaped fashion.
