Margeurite is a 1956 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 loose, knee-length dress with a fitted top and a flared skirt. The dress has a dark blue base with splashes of green and white, almost like a watercolor effect. She’s wearing a round hat and simple shoes, with one hand resting on her hip. The name *Margeurite* is scrawled in the corner—maybe a nickname for the design. The artist used quick, confident strokes to suggest fabric and movement. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
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.
