Ecolière is a 1924 by Madeleine & Madeleine, depicting Belt, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman from the back, wearing a dark dress with puffed sleeves and a white collar. Her skirt has a wide belt tied in a big bow at the side, and the fabric flows loosely around her legs. The background is plain, and the lines are quick and simple, like a quick sketch. The name "Ecolière" is written at the top, which might hint at a schoolgirl vibe, though the dress looks more grown-up. The address in Paris suggests this was made there in 1924. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching—it’s a drawing technique that uses crisscrossed lines to add shading.
These artists left a small but striking set of 1924 drawings and designs that mix fashion and line.
