1953
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Sucre d'orge is a 1953 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman standing sideways, wearing a light pink dress with a floral pattern. Her arms are crossed over her chest, and the dress has a fitted waist and flared skirt. The sleeves are rolled up, and she’s wearing simple shoes. The drawing is loose and quick, with soft shading for the fabric’s texture. The name *Sucre d’orge* is written at the top—likely the dress’s name. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion sketches.
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.
