1955
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Tric-trac is a 1955 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 fitted dress with a crisscross pattern. Her skirt flares slightly, and she wears a headband. The lines are simple but precise, with a few flat colors for the face and shoes. The dress looks like it’s made of woven fabric, with a bold geometric design. The artist used clean, sharp lines to show the folds and shape. Next, look up cross-hatching to see how artists create texture 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.
