Horoscope is a 1955 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a sleek black outfit. The dress is simple but fitted, with a high collar and long sleeves that end in cuffs. Her pants are straight and taper at the ankle, and she’s wearing low-heeled shoes. The lines are bold and confident, with just a few quick strokes for the face and hands. The title *Horoscope* hints this might be more than just a fashion sketch—it could play with ideas about style and personality. The loose, sketchy style makes it feel quick and modern, almost like a snapshot of a look rather than a polished portrait. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
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.
