1959
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Robe noire à bretelles is a 1959 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple black dress with thin straps and a flared skirt. The dress is drawn in loose, confident lines, with quick strokes for the arms and legs. To the right, there’s a tiny outline of the dress’s pattern, like a flat sketch. The artist kept it clean—no extra details, just the shape and flow of the fabric. The black dress stands out against the light background, making it look sleek and easy. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
