Onyx is a 1963 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Sleeveles, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a simple black dress with a belt at the waist. Her hair is styled neatly, and she stands confidently with one hand on her hip. The background is plain, keeping all focus on her outfit and pose. The artist used loose, sketchy lines to capture the dress’s folds and her stance. The black-and-white style makes the outfit look sleek and modern. Check out the artist Marie-Louise Carven for more of her fashion sketches.
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.
