1952
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Tornade is a 1952 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 green dress with short sleeves and a fitted waist. She’s wearing black heels and holding a small purse in one hand. The dress has a straight, simple cut with two pockets on the front. The artist used loose, quick lines to draw the outfit and pose. The name *Tornade* is written at the top—maybe it’s the dress name or just a title. Check out womenswear from the 1930s to see how fashion shaped this look.
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.
