1953
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Suprême 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 in a flowing blue dress with a fitted bodice and a wide, layered skirt. The bodice has a small floral pattern, and the skirt flares out dramatically. Her hair is pulled back, and she wears simple earrings and a necklace. The word "Suprême" is written in the corner, which might hint at something special about the design. The lines are loose and quick, giving the drawing a lively, unfinished feel. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists build 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.
