Fanfan la Tulipe is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a dark blue outfit with a matching jacket and skirt. Her pose is casual, with one hand on her hip and the other dangling. The drawing is loose and quick, with simple lines and no background. In the corner, there’s a small sketch of just the jacket. The handwritten note says *"Fanfan la Tulipe"*—maybe the name of the outfit or the person. The style looks like a fashion drawing, not a portrait. If you like this kind of sketch, check out womenswear from the 1920s to 1940s.
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.
