1953
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Jeunesse is a 1953 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, blue plaid jacket with wide lapels and three visible buttons. Her matching skirt is gathered at the waist and falls in soft folds to her ankles. White gloves peek out from under her jacket cuffs, and she wears low-heeled shoes. The word *Jeunesse* (French for "youth") is scrawled in the corner—maybe hinting at freshness or energy in the design. The drawing feels quick and lively, like a fashion idea jotted down fast.
