1953
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Orient-Express is a 1953 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, striped dress with a high collar and three-quarter sleeves. She holds a matching coat draped over one arm, and her hair is pulled back. The lines are bold and simple, with no extra details. The title *Orient-Express* suggests this might be a travel-themed design, though the drawing itself is clean and modern. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next.
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.
