'Teresina' is a 1951 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, flowing dress with a deep V-neck and wide pockets. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands confidently with one hand on her hip. The lines are simple but confident, with quick strokes that suggest fabric texture. The name "Teresina" is scrawled in the corner, and the style looks like it was drawn fast—maybe for a fashion idea. The dress shape feels modern for its time, with a relaxed fit that wasn’t common then. Check out Marie-Louise Carven next—she was known for bold, practical designs like this.
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.
