Mokot is a 1959 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Fastener, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The image presents a drawing of a woman in a black dress, accompanied by a small white dress in the bottom-right corner. The woman's dress features a lace bodice and a full skirt, with her head covered by a white cloth. She is depicted in a walking pose, with her left leg extended forward. The drawing is rendered in a loose, expressive style, with bold lines and subtle shading. The use of black and white creates a striking contrast, drawing the viewer's attention to the woman's elegant attire. This drawing is reminiscent of the work of artist 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.
