1951
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Maillot de bain deux pièces is a 1951 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Swimsuit, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows two simple shapes on a light background. At the top is a pair of glasses with thick, dark frames. Below them is a loose sketch of a two-piece swimsuit—just outlines and some shading. The drawing feels quick, almost like a rough sketch. The lines are confident but not detailed, focusing on basic shapes over realism. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching to see how artists build form with lines.
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.
