Pescadora 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 flowing dress with a deep V-neck and three-quarter sleeves. The dress is white at the top, fading into bold stripes of blue and green near the hem. The fabric looks soft and loose, with a slight A-line shape. The word *Pescadora* is written at the top—it means "fisherwoman" in Spanish, hinting the dress might be inspired by that theme. The brushstrokes are quick and loose, almost like a quick sketch. Next, check out artist: Marie-Louise Carven to see 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.
