1955
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Olga is a 1955 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman from the back, wearing a sleek black dress with bold blue floral patterns. The dress fits snugly at the waist and flares slightly at the bottom, ending just above her ankles. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she holds her arms relaxed at her sides. The sketch uses loose, quick lines to capture movement and fabric texture. The blue flowers stand out sharply against the dark background, making the dress the clear focus. Check out more by Marie-Louise Carven to see how she played with patterns and shapes.
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.
