1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Sienne is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a flowing, dark dress with a fitted bodice and a wide, layered skirt. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The drawing is loose and quick, with brushstrokes blending browns and blacks for the dress and light strokes for the skin and hair. The name "Sienne" is written in the corner, which might be a title or a reference. The style feels like a fashion study, capturing movement and fabric in a simple way.

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.
