Jasmin is a 1967 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, loose coat with big lapels and a small hat. She’s holding something small in her right hand, maybe a cigarette or a book. The coat is drawn with quick, clean lines, and the fabric looks soft and flowing. Next to her is a smaller view of the coat from behind, showing its simple shape. The artist used light shading to show folds in the fabric, keeping it simple but detailed. The lines are confident but not fussy—just enough to make the coat look real. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next 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.
