1951
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Nymphéas is a 1951 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a wide, checkered skirt. Her top has big, ruffled shoulder pieces, and she’s wearing a wide-brimmed hat. The sketch is loose and quick, with simple lines and light shading. The name *Nymphéas* is written at the top, and the artist signed it *Carven*. The checkered pattern and flowing lines make the dress look light and airy. Look up 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.
