1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Valencay is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman walking in a blue polka-dot dress and matching jacket. Her hair is short and styled neatly, and she’s wearing simple shoes. The lines are loose and quick, with a few quick strokes for movement. The signature in the corner says *Valencay*, and the drawing looks like it was made fast, almost like a fashion sketch. The dots on the dress are evenly spaced, but the rest of the lines are rough and freehand. If you like this style, look up 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.
