Dominant colour
Traîneau is a 1962 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a long black dress with a fur trim at the hem. She’s wearing a black hat tied under her chin and carrying a matching coat over one arm. The lines are simple but confident, with just a few quick strokes for her face and hands. The artist focused on the dress’s clean shape and the way the fabric falls. The black-and-white style makes the outfit look sleek and modern. If you like this style, look up womenswear to see how fashion was drawn in the early 20th century.
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.
