Dickens is a 1924 by Madeleine & Madeleine, depicting Pleating, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing shows a woman in a dark, knee-length dress with gold trim. Her hair is pulled back, and she wears a matching gold-patterned shawl draped over her shoulders. One arm is raised, and the other hand rests on her hip. The dress has a long slit up the side and a row of pleats at the bottom. The artist’s signature, *Madeleine & Madeleine*, is written at the top right. The name of a Paris shop, *Madeleine & Madeleine*, is printed at the bottom, suggesting this might be a fashion sketch. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists create texture with lines.
These artists left a small but striking set of 1924 drawings and designs that mix fashion and line.
