Feux de route is a 1952 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 long, dark green dress with a high collar and big sleeves. She’s holding a cigarette in one hand and a small object in the other. The drawing is loose and quick, with some areas left plain and others filled in with watercolor-like strokes. The title, *Feux de route*, hints at a sense of motion or direction—maybe the pose suggests walking or standing. The style feels modern for its time, with a focus on the dress’s shape and fabric. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
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.
