1955
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Dopping is a 1955 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This quick sketch shows a woman from the back, wearing a long coat and a skirt tied at the waist. Her hair is tucked under a hat, and she holds her hands together in front. The drawing is loose and warm-toned, with soft browns and quick strokes. The artist signed it "Dopping" in the corner—maybe a nickname or a play on words. The sketch feels like a fast, casual study of clothing, not a polished portrait. If you like how clothes look in art, check out womenswear in fashion history.
