1953
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Mirliton is a 1953 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, long-sleeved jacket and a knee-length skirt. Both pieces have a checkered pattern in muted browns and grays. Her hands rest near her hips, and she stands with one leg slightly forward. The artist’s loose lines and simple shading give the outfit a clean, modern look. The name *Mirliton* is scrawled in the corner—maybe the outfit’s nickname. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
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.
