Pierre Cardin

About

Pierre Cardin was an Italian-born naturalised-French fashion designer. He is known for what were his avant-garde style and Space Age designs.

He founded his fashion house in 1950 and introduced the "bubble dress" in 1954. Though he is remembered today mostly for his Space Age late '60s womenswear, during the 1960s and first half of the '70s he was better known as the top menswear designer of the time, the man who had reintroduced shaped, fitted suits to the public after a long period of looser fit in men's clothes. Retailers noted that Cardin's popularity had taught men to associate a designer's name with their clothing the way women had long done. Read more
