1952
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Naïade is a 1952 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing blue dress with a wide skirt and a fitted bodice. The dress has a simple neckline and a bow at the waist. Her arms are outstretched, and she’s wearing yellow gloves. The drawing looks loose and quick, with light strokes and some shading on the dress. The name "Naïade" is written in the corner, which might hint at something beyond just a dress sketch. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
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.
