Rêveuse is a 1924 by Madeleine & Madeleine, depicting Embroidery, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a short black dress with white embroidery and shiny gold thread. Her sleeves are puffy, and she wears a long necklace with a pendant. The dress has a wide belt and a fringe at the bottom. The background is plain, and the drawing looks like it was done quickly with loose lines. The handwriting on the paper includes the names *Madeleine & Madeleine*, which might be the artists or the shop where the dress was made. The style looks like it’s from the 1920s, with a focus on bold patterns and glamour. If you like this dress, check out the technique: 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.
