La Baule is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a simple, elegant outfit. She wears a fitted jacket with a checkered pattern over a matching skirt. Her hair is pulled back, and she has on low heels. The lines are clean and confident, with no extra details. The checkered fabric and the way the jacket fits suggest this is a fashion sketch. The name *La Baule* might hint at a seaside or vacation vibe, but we don’t know for sure. If you like this style, check out womenswear from the 1950s.
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.
