'Pluie d'été' is a 1949 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 loose, knee-length dress with a belted jacket over it. The outfit is simple, with clean lines and a flowing skirt. The drawing is in black and white, with light shading to show folds in the fabric. The title *Pluie d'été* means "summer rain," which might hint at how the dress moves or feels in light weather. The style looks practical yet stylish—like something you’d wear while walking in a light drizzle. If you like this sketch, check out Marie-Louise Carven for more fashion drawings.
