Marabout is a 1960 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a simple, knee-length dress with short sleeves and two pockets. The dress is drawn in loose, gray lines, while the background is mostly blank except for a few smudges. To the right, there’s a matching back view of the same dress, also sketched quickly. The artist used quick, sketchy strokes to show fabric folds and volume. The handwritten label in the corner says *Marabout* with the number 131. Next, look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
