1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Saint Raphaël is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This is a quick, sketchy drawing of a woman from behind. She’s wearing a long coat with a wide collar and a belt at the waist. The coat looks like it has a striped pattern, and her hands are tucked into pockets. The artist signed it “St Raphaël” in the corner. The drawing feels loose, like it was done fast—maybe to capture the shape and style of the coat. If you like this style of fashion sketches, look up womenswear.
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.
