Inclination is a 1963 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Bustier, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a fitted bodice. The skirt is sheer and has a pattern of small birds or flowers scattered across it. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s wearing a simple bracelet on one wrist. The title *Inclination* hints at a tilt or movement in her pose, even though the drawing is static. The dress style looks like something from the mid-20th century, with a mix of elegance and simplicity. If you like this style, look up bustier to see how it connects to fashion in the 1960s.
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.
