Grillage is a 1953 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, stylish outfit. She’s wearing a white top with a high collar and a green dress covered in small dots. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands with one hand on her hip. The word *Grillage* is scrawled at the top—it might hint at the dot pattern on her dress. The drawing looks loose and quick, like a first idea rather than a finished work. Next, check out womenswear from the 1930s to see how fashion like this was worn.
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.
