Louis d'or is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Gold, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple black dress with short sleeves and a fitted waist. The skirt flares out slightly, and she holds a small purse in one hand. The drawing is loose and quick, with light pencil lines and a few darker strokes for shadows. The name *Louis d’or* is written in the corner—it might refer to the dress or a design detail. The artist signed it, but the style feels more like a quick fashion study than a finished portrait. If you like this sketch, look up Marie-Louise Carven for 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.
