1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Pierralle is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Ensemble, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows two women in simple, loose black dresses with short sleeves. One stands straight with one leg slightly bent, while the other leans forward with her arms relaxed. The dresses have a dotted pattern, and the lines are quick and light, like a quick study. The name "Pierralle" is written in the corner, maybe the model’s name or the design. The drawing feels like a quick, rough idea rather than a finished piece. Check out cross-hatching to see how artists build texture with lines.
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.
