About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, knee-length dress with bold green and orange floral patterns. The fabric looks soft, and the skirt flares slightly at the bottom. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The name "Tulipe rose" is scrawled in the corner—maybe the dress’s design was inspired by roses or tulips. The small sketch of the dress on the right shows the back view, with a tie at the waist. Look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her fashion drawings.
