1949

Dominant colour
'Train bleu' is a 1949 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing coat with a wide belt at the waist. The coat has a textured pattern, and the sleeves are slightly puffy at the shoulders. The lines are loose but confident, with quick brushstrokes that suggest fabric movement. The title, *"Train bleu"*, is signed in the corner—likely referring to the coat’s color or style. The drawing feels like a quick study, not a polished final piece. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
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.
