'Platine' is a 1949 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The image depicts a black and white drawing of a woman in a long dress, with her arms outstretched to the sides. The dress features a high neckline and long sleeves, with a decorative belt around the waist. The woman's face is not visible, and her body is posed in a dynamic manner, as if she is in motion. The drawing is rendered in a simple yet elegant style, with clean lines and minimal shading. The overall effect is one of grace and sophistication, with the woman's pose and attire conveying a sense of refinement and poise.
