1963
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Saphir is a 1963 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Belt, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple purple dress with a belt at the waist. The dress has a subtle pattern, and she’s wearing dark heels. Her hair is pulled back neatly under a hat. The belt sits snugly at her waist, cinching the dress. The drawing is loose but precise, with quick, confident lines. Try looking up sleeveless dresses next to see how this style fits into fashion history.
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.
