Founded in Paris in 1950 by the Italian-born French designer, Pierre Cardin is a brand built on avant-garde creativity and futurism. After working under Christian Dior, Cardin established his own house, quickly gaining fame for his architectural, Space Age designs. He became a pioneer of the 1960s mod look with his preference for geometric shapes, unisex garments, and experimental materials like vinyl, famously creating the “bubble dress” in 1954. The brand was also a trailblazer in menswear, popularizing the collarless suit jacket worn by The Beatles.
