'Tricorne' 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 bold, dark outfit with sharp lines. She wears a wide-brimmed hat, a fitted jacket with big pockets, and a long, narrow skirt. Her pose is confident, with one hand on her hip and the other resting on her thigh. The artist used quick, loose strokes to capture the outfit’s shape and fabric texture. Notice how the jacket’s buttons and the hat’s shadow add depth without too much detail. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion-inspired drawings.
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.
