1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Richelieu is a 1958 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 sleek black outfit with a fitted jacket and a flared skirt. Her hands rest in her pockets, and she wears a simple belt at the waist. Next to her is a flat drawing of the same dress from the back, showing the collar and skirt shape. The sketch is signed "Carven" in the corner, hinting at the artist’s name. The loose, confident lines suggest quick, expressive work—maybe done for fashion design. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
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.
