Mouette is a 1960 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 simple black dress with short sleeves and a fitted waist. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The background is plain, focusing all attention on the figure. The artist’s loose lines and quick strokes give the drawing a lively, almost sketchy feel. There’s also a small side sketch of the dress shape, like a quick note for sewing. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion drawings.
