1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Pergola is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Multicolored, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman from the back, wearing a bright, flowing dress with bold red, pink, orange, and green floral patterns. The dress has a fitted bodice and a wide, flared skirt that swishes around her legs. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s holding something small in her right hand. The drawing is loose and quick, with loose brushstrokes and some pencil lines. The colors pop against the plain background, making the dress look lively. If you like this style, look up Marie-Louise Carven for more fashion sketches.
