Pousse-pousse is a 1959 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Polo Neck, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a sleek black outfit. She’s wearing a long coat with a high collar and matching skirt, plus pointed shoes. Her hair is styled in a tight bun, and she’s holding a small purse. Next to her is a simple sketch of the same outfit without the coat. The artist signed it “Pousse-pousse” and added the year “42.” The black-and-white style keeps it clean and sharp, focusing on the outfit’s details.
