The Pierre Cardin brand stuck to its founder's playbook but is searching for new designers.
The Pierre Cardin show on Sunday during Paris Fashion Week was designed to mark the renovation of the brand’s historic flagship in Paris, where Mayor Anne Hidalgo was due to unveil a plaque dedicated to the Space Age designer the following day.
The display marked Cardin’s return to the official calendar for the first time in more than a decade, and comes amid a drive by his great-nephew Rodrigo Basilicati-Cardin to reenergize the brand’s 140 licensees worldwide. He opened with a series of tailored looks in a patchwork of houndstooth fabrics, some topped with a large flat circular hat. The menswear was faithful to Cardin’s futuristic vision, with an instantly recognizable look that has yet to catch on after several decades.
