Igor is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple pose, walking sideways. She’s wearing a striped dress with vertical lines, a hat, and a small bag in her hand. The lines are bold and clean, giving the drawing a sharp, almost geometric look. The artist used quick, confident strokes to show the fabric’s texture and the woman’s movement. The background is plain, so all the focus stays on her outfit and stance. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching to see how artists build shading with lines.
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.
