1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Saint Cyr is a 1958 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 simple, two-piece outfit. The top is a dark blue and black checkered jacket with a belt, and the skirt is the same pattern but shorter. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands straight, holding a small bag in one hand. The sketch uses bold lines and flat colors, with no shading. The checkered fabric looks like it’s made of blocks of color rather than detailed weave. Next, check out womenswear from the 1950s for more outfits like this.
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.
