1953
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Truffe is a 1953 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 loose, knee-length dress covered in small black dots. She wears a wide-brimmed hat and carries a long cigarette holder in one hand. The drawing is simple, with quick strokes and no background. The name *Truffe* is written in the corner, which might be the outfit’s nickname. The dots on the dress look like they were made with a repeated dabbing motion. If you like this style, check out stippling next.
