Dame blanche is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing depicts a woman in a formal dress, with the title "Dame blanche" written above her. The woman is shown from the side, facing left, and is wearing a sleeveless dress with a full skirt. Her hair is styled in an updo, and she is wearing high heels. The dress features a pattern of lines and shapes, with a darker color used for the bodice and a lighter color for the skirt. The overall effect is one of elegance and sophistication. The drawing is rendered in a simple yet effective style, with clean lines and minimal shading. It appears to be a study or sketch rather than a finished work of art. If you're interested in learning more about the artist's technique, you might want to explore the use of cross-hatching.
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.
