1957
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Manteau bleu is a 1957 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This is a loose, watercolor sketch of a woman in a long, blue coat. The coat has a high collar, three buttons down the front, and a flared skirt that hits just above her knees. She’s wearing simple black shoes and her hair is pulled back neatly. The lines are quick and light, with just a few strokes to suggest her pose and the fabric’s folds. The blue coat stands out against the plain background, making it the focus. The sketch feels quick, like it was drawn in one go without too much detail. Want to see more? Look up Marie-Louise Carven.
