Roitelet is a 1960 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 dark, checkered outfit with a high collar and long scarf. She stands sideways, one hand in her pocket, wearing a hat and heels. To the right, there’s a simple sketch of a matching jacket. The artist focused on clean lines and bold shapes, skipping small details. The checkered pattern is drawn with quick, confident strokes. Look up cross-hatching next to see how artists build texture with lines.
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.
