1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Dartagnan is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman from behind, wearing a loose jacket with big buttons and a wide-brimmed hat. The lines are simple and quick, with light shading to show folds in her clothes. Her legs are long, and she’s walking with one foot slightly ahead. The artist signed it “D’Artagnan” in the corner—maybe a nickname or a playful name. The drawing looks like a quick study of fashion, focusing on how clothes move with the body. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
