1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Robinson is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, knee-length dress with puffed sleeves. The dress has a tie at the waist and a wide, flared skirt covered in green and yellow floral patterns. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she stands with one leg slightly forward, holding a small purse. To the right, there’s a simpler line drawing of the same dress from the front. The artist’s loose, confident lines make the dress look effortless. The sketch feels like a quick study, maybe for a fashion design. Next, 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.
