1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Grande rue is a 1958 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 simple, sleek dress with a fitted bodice and a flared skirt. The dress is a muted gray with a small bow at the waist. Her hair is short and neatly styled, and she stands confidently with one hand resting on her hip. The handwritten notes say "grande rue" and mention a fabric called "flanelle gris," which means gray flannel. The sketch includes a small side view of the dress to show its shape.
