1951
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Kalia is a 1951 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, flowing dress with vertical stripes. The dress has a high waist, short sleeves, and a flared skirt with small, simple drawings of faces near the hem. Her hands rest on her hips, and she wears low-heeled shoes. The artist used quick, loose lines to suggest fabric folds and movement. The hem details look like playful doodles, almost like a signature touch. Check out Marie-Louise Carven for more of her fashion-focused sketches.
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.
