1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Ispahan is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Multicolored, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a strapless dress with a fitted bodice and a flared skirt. The skirt has bold, colorful swirls in greens, blues, and reds. The dress looks simple but has a structured shape with clean lines. The word "Ispahan" is written at the top, which might be the dress’s name. The sketch is loose and quick, with some areas filled in lightly. If you like this style, look up *cross-hatching* to see how artists build texture 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.
