Pierre Cardin made his name Pierre Cardin, his brand name. From perfume to pens, produced under one umbrella, the brand Pierre Cardin distributes and enhances its market worldwide. Pierre Cardin introduced his brand, Pierre Cardin, 72 years ago in 1950 in France, and it still has its own magic, revolutionary authentic standard which cannot be competed with by anyone else. He was the first designer to combine a mini skirt with a maxi skirt. His architectural sensibility with sculpted fabric became his signature style at that time. In 1946, the film La Belle et la Bête caught all the eyes when he made a velvet costume for the Beast. Pierre Cardin first started his boutique in 1954 named Eve for women, then for men named Adam in 1957, as Eve and Adam came into being on earth.
Pierre Cardin, born as Pietro Costante Cardin, was a French fashion designer from Italy. He was a member of the French Academy of Fine Arts from 1992 until his death. Pierre Cardin showed his love for art in every detail of his design. His experimental style and unisex clothing designs opened the new closed doors of fashion for everybody, and the fashion world started following him. Pierre Cardin comes with his bubble dress, which is a revolution in the world of new fashion. With the geometrical shapes of design and motifs, he made his designs experimental and especially for everyone.
The Bubble dress is one of the revolutionary creations of Pierre Cardin. It is a very specific style of skirt with volume for women, which is made bubble by the hem of the skirt when it is folded in back and creates a bubble effect.
Pierre Cardin modified menswear and cut the cuffs, lapels, and collars from the traditional men's suits and made collarless suits, which gained popularity at that time. Pierre Cardin visited Pakistan and India and was inspired when he saw the high-collared jacket, named the Nehru jacket, and included the idea in his work. His men's wear house was in a separate building.
Pierre Cardin promoted his design with advanced fabrics and materials, which made his design fascinating. With space age design, he coined minimal dressing for men and women. His designs are not just unisex; sometimes they gain asexual features. He was a rebel in his time. He promoted equality for men and women in fashion. No gender distinction can be seen in his designs.
Pierre Cardin said, "The job of fashion is not just to make pretty suits or dresses; it is to change the face of the world by cut and line. It is to make another aspect of men evident. "Pierre Cardin was followed by many fashion designers because of his own logo. He started the trend and others have followed him since 1970. Pierre Cardin's logos are sometimes round bull's-eye, three-dimensional icons or his signature on the product.
Among the notable items are: mushroom line coat and a dramatic collar; bare-back wool dress; sloped waist jacket; underneath a narrow dress with a belt in suede; scalloped suit; checked satin dress; back-spin scarf; and many more.
As Pierre Cardin said, "Fashion is always ridiculous, seen from before or after. But in the moment, it's marvellous. He made his moment marvellous; his moment was a golden age for fashion. In the fashion world, he popularized unisex and his magnificent space age style designer garments, and he made his era magnificent and golden during the obsession period of the feminine fashion style. Who doesn't love the Beauty and the Beast story of love and thrill? Who doesn't want to be Bella, the fortunate lover of the great ugly and mysterious Beast? Pierre Cardin made that fantasy and those characters come to life with his costumes. He was the king of the fashion world; he made history with his magical ideas of fashion.
