1963
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Mont Cenis is a 1963 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Sleeveles, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a long black dress with a high waist and pointed collar. Her hair is styled in a loose updo, and she’s wearing yellow high heels. The dress is simple but elegant, with a small sketch of another outfit in the corner. The name “Mont Cenis” is written at the top, but it’s unclear what that refers to. The artist’s initials, “C.P,” appear on the smaller sketch. If you like this style, look up 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.
