About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, dark coat with a simple bow at the waist. Her outfit looks sleek and modern, with a round hat and pointed shoes. To the right, there’s a small drawing of the same coat, folded flat. The name "Joli Coeur" is written in the corner, which might hint at something about the design. The artist drew it in 1963, focusing on how the coat would look both worn and stored. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
