1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Violetta is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This is a loose, sketchy drawing of a woman in a flowing dress. The fabric looks light and airy, with big purple flowers and green leaves painted on it. Her arms are out to the sides, and the skirt flares out at the bottom, showing movement. The name "Violetta" is written in the corner, maybe the dress’s name. The brushstrokes are quick and rough, like the artist was working fast. If you like this style, check out 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.
