1963
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Gstaad is a 1963 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 red dress and matching jacket, standing sideways with one hand on her hip. Her hair is styled in a short, neat bob, and she wears low-heeled shoes. The drawing is loose and quick, with light pencil strokes that leave some areas unfinished. The tiny sketch of a different dress in the corner suggests this might be a design study. The word "Gstaad" is written in the top right, possibly hinting at where the outfit was meant to be worn. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
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.
