1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Dampierre is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The image depicts a drawing of a woman wearing a red coat with a white skirt, accompanied by a smaller drawing of the back of the coat. The woman has short hair and is standing with her left leg slightly bent. The drawing is rendered in a simple yet elegant style, with clean lines and minimal shading. The use of red and white creates a striking contrast that draws the viewer's attention to the woman's attire. This piece is reminiscent of the work of artists who specialize in fashion illustration, and you may want to explore more of Marie-Louise Carven's work to see how she approaches this genre.
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.
