Safran is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, loose coat with a speckled pattern in browns and whites. The coat has a high collar, three buttons, and wide sleeves that flare slightly at the wrists. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she wears simple shoes with a low heel. The drawing is loose and quick, with light pencil strokes that suggest fabric texture. The artist focused on the coat’s shape and pattern rather than fine details. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
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.
