Joliet is a 1962 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a brown dress with a floral pattern. The dress has a fitted top and a flared skirt, stopping just above the knee. Her hair is styled in a loose updo with a flower pinned on top. The drawing is loose and quick, with simple lines and shading. The sketch is signed with "Joliet 82" in the corner, which might be the dress name or a code. The style looks like a fashion drawing, not a portrait. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
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.
