'Gachucha' is a 1951 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 sleek black dress with a short, fitted top and a flared skirt. The skirt has bold stripes in bright colors—red, green, purple, and yellow—arranged in wavy lines. Her pose is relaxed, with one arm resting and her head turned slightly. The name "Gachucha" is signed in the corner, and the drawing feels loose and quick, like a fashion sketch. The bright stripes on the skirt stand out against the dark dress, making it pop. Next, check out 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.
