'Neveria' is a 1951 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 long, dark purple dress. The dress has a high neck, short sleeves, and a fitted waist that flares into a wide, flowing skirt. Her pose is confident, with one hand on her hip and the other resting at her side. The artist used loose, quick brushstrokes to suggest fabric folds and movement. The signature in the corner reads "Neveria," which is also the title of this drawing. Look up Marie-Louise Carven next to see more of her fashion illustrations.
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.
