1963
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Sestrière is a 1963 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Sleeveles, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman from the back, wearing a simple black dress that falls just above the ankles. Her hair is styled in a loose updo, and she stands with one hand resting at her side. The lines are loose and quick, giving the drawing a lively, unfinished feel. The word *Sestrière* is written in the corner—likely the title—and there’s a tiny side sketch of a dress with straps. The whole thing looks like a quick study, maybe for a fashion design. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
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.
