'Péon' is a 1951 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 simple, flowing dress with sharp lines at the shoulders. She’s wearing a wide-brimmed hat and holding a small bag. The drawing is loose and quick, with soft shading and a few bold strokes to define her shape. The artist signed it “Péon” in the corner—maybe a nickname or the model’s name. The style looks like it’s from the early 1950s, with a clean, modern feel. If you like this, check out Marie-Louise Carven for 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.
