Zinia 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 walking sideways, wearing a wide-brimmed pink hat and a loose, light-colored dress that flows down to her ankles. Her shoes are simple and low, and she holds her skirt slightly with one hand. The lines are quick and loose, with some shading on her arms and legs. The name "Zinia" is written in the corner, which might be the dress’s name or the model’s. The drawing looks like it was done fast, almost like a quick fashion note.
