Fleur d'or is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Flower, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This is a loose, quick sketch of a woman in a simple dress. The fabric has a light pattern, maybe flowers or dots, and the dress fits loosely at the shoulders. She’s wearing a hat and holding a small bag or piece of paper in one hand. The lines are simple, almost like a quick doodle, with just a few shadows to show shape. The title *Fleur d’or* means “gold flower” in French, which might hint at the pattern or the dress’s color. The sketch feels casual, like a first try at a design.
