1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Réséda is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Button, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman walking. She wears a long green coat with a light skirt underneath. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s holding her coat open slightly with one hand. The artist used quick, loose lines to capture her movement. The coat’s texture is suggested with simple strokes, not detailed shading. Look up cross-hatching next to see how artists build form 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.
