Simplette is a 1924 unspecified by Madeleine & Madeleine, a Art Nouveau work, depicting Swatch, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a 1920s-style dress with a belted jacket and high-heeled shoes. Her hair is short and pulled back, and she stands with her arms crossed. The background is mostly plain, but there’s a blue fabric swatch on the left side. The handwriting on the paper describes the dress in detail, like how it can be made in different colors. The sketch looks like it was done quickly, with loose lines and simple shading. Look up swatch to see how fabric samples like this one were used in fashion design.
These artists left a small but striking set of 1924 drawings and designs that mix fashion and line.
