1949

'Nanouk' is a 1949 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a person in a simple, clean outfit: a red jacket over a light vest, matching red pants, and dark shoes. They’re holding a small white folder and have a light scarf around their neck. The background is mostly blank, with just a few loose lines and a tiny sketch of a chair in the corner. The drawing feels quick and loose, like it was made fast. The artist focused on shapes and colors, not details. Check out Marie-Louise Carven next 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.
