'Manza' is a 1951 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a floral pattern. The dress is light with dark spots, and the skirt flares out wide. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s standing sideways with one arm raised. The background is loose, watercolor-like strokes in beige and gray. The artist signed it “Manza” in the corner.
