1952
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Marcassite is a 1952 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a dark, simple dress with a belt and a small bow. Her sleeves are long and snug, and she’s standing with one hand resting on a flat surface. The lines are loose and quick, with some shading to show light and shadow. The word *Marcassite* is written in the corner—likely the dress’s name. The drawing feels like a quick study, maybe for a fashion design. Check out Marie-Louise Carven next to see 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.
