Lolita is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple, sleeveless dress with a fitted bodice and a flared skirt. The dress is light gray with subtle green shading on the sides, and the woman’s pose is loose, like she’s walking. Her hair is styled in a soft updo, and she wears simple earrings. The small sketch in the corner looks like a pattern draft for the dress’s back view. The drawing is loose and quick, with clean lines and a few watercolor washes for shading.

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.
