1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Saxo is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a person wearing a long, brown coat with big pockets and a high collar. Their hair is covered by a cap, and they’re standing with one leg slightly forward. The coat looks simple but has clean, sharp lines. The sketch is signed “Saxo” in the corner, which might be the coat’s name. The artist used loose, quick strokes to draw the figure and fabric. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
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.
