Dominant colour
Follette is a 1957 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Stone, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a quick, loose drawing of a standing figure. The lines are simple and dark, with a focus on the body’s shape—shoulders, hips, and legs. The figure’s head is small, almost like a thought bubble, and the arms are raised slightly. In the corner, there’s a tiny second figure, barely more than a stick-person. The name *Follette* is scrawled in the top right, maybe the model’s name or a nickname. The drawing feels more like a fast study than a finished work—just a few strokes to capture movement and form. If you like quick, sketchy drawings, look up cross-hatching.
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.
