1952
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Satin vison is a 1952 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Satin, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a deep V-neck and flared skirt. Her arms are outstretched, and the dress looks smooth and shiny, like it’s made of fabric that drapes nicely. The background is plain, with just a few loose lines that might be furniture or a table. The artist wrote “Satin vison” at the top—maybe the dress is meant to look like satin or mink. The drawing is loose and quick, with some areas filled in more than others. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next to see how artists build up shading 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.
