1951
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
'Disque d'or' is a 1951 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Gold, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a pattern of dark circles on it. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s wearing simple jewelry—just a bracelet and earrings. The dress has a wide skirt that flares out, almost like a fan, and her arms are relaxed at her sides. The sketch is signed with the words *"disque d’or"*—French for "gold record"—which might hint at the dress’s shimmer or shape. The loose, quick lines give it a sketchy, almost handwritten feel. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion drawings.
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.
