1957
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Robe plissée blanche à motif de carré noir is a 1957 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a fitted jacket and a long, pleated skirt. The jacket has black-and-white checkered squares, while the skirt flares out in soft layers. Her pose is simple—one leg slightly forward, arms relaxed at her sides. The handwritten note in the corner reads *"Robe plissée blanche à motif de carré noir"*, which means "white pleated dress with black square pattern." The artist’s loose lines focus on shape and fabric folds. Check out Marie-Louise Carven for more of her fashion-inspired drawings.
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.
