Poterie is a 1959 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The image depicts a fashion illustration of a woman wearing a blue dress with a pattern of abstract shapes. The dress has a high neckline, short sleeves, and a knee-length hem. The woman is posed with her left hand on her hip and her right arm bent at the elbow, with her hand near her waist. She is wearing white gloves and high heels. To the right of the woman, there is a simple line drawing of a dress on a mannequin. The illustration is done in a style reminiscent of 1950s fashion illustrations, with bold lines and bright colors. The background of the image is a light beige color. This fashion illustration is a great example of the style of the 1950s, and it would be interesting to learn more about the artist, Marie-Louise Carven.
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.
