1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Glycine is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Pleating, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing purple dress. Her arms are raised behind her head, and the dress has a fitted waist with a deep V-neck. The fabric looks soft, with smooth lines and gentle folds. The name *Glycine* is written at the top—maybe it’s the dress’s design or code. The drawing is simple but catches how the fabric moves. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching to see how artists create texture with lines.
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.
