1955
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Oracle is a 1955 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 loose, dark suit with a leafy pattern. She stands with one hand on her hip and the other resting on her thigh. The lines are simple but confident, and the background is just a plain, light color. The title *Oracle* is scrawled in the corner, and the drawing looks like it was made quickly—maybe for a fashion sketch. The suit’s style feels modern but also a little old-fashioned.
