1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Hirondelle 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, striped dress with short sleeves and a belt. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands with her hands clasped in front of her. To the right, there’s a small drawing of the same dress from the back, showing its shape more clearly. The artist focused on the lines and folds of the fabric, keeping the drawing loose and quick. The name "Hirondelle" is written in the corner, which might hint at something about the subject or style. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
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.
