1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Grenouillère is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a bright green dress with white polka dots. The dress has short puffed sleeves and a fitted waist, flaring into a full skirt. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she stands with one hand on her hip. To the right, there’s a quick sketch of the dress from the back, showing the same shape. The word *Grenouillère* is written in the corner—it might refer to a place or style. The drawing feels loose and quick, like a first idea rather than a finished design. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching for similar sketch techniques.
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.
