1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Rivarol is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a long, red coat with a belted waist and simple shoes. Her hat sits snugly on her head, and she holds a small white bag in one hand. The lines are loose and quick, with flat colors and no shading. The artist signed it "Rivarol" in the corner—likely a nickname or brand name. The coat looks like something from the 1920s or 1930s, with clean lines and a practical cut. If you like this style, look up womenswear to see how fashion and art mix.
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.
