Gong is a 1959 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 loose, gray coat with a purple hat and matching gloves. Her coat has a simple collar and pockets, while her shoes are pointed with a purple heel. Next to her is a flat drawing of the same coat, showing its shape from the front. The artist used bold lines and flat colors to keep the drawing clean and stylized. The purple pops against the gray, making it stand out. If you like this style, look up Marie-Louise Carven next.
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.
