The shocking loss of the fashion world: you did not know these facts about Pierre Cardin

The great French fashion designer Pierre Cardin, praised not only for his visionary ideas but also for the elegant suits created for the general public, died Tuesday at the age of 98, his family reported.

Mr. Cardin was born in Italy in 1922, but emigrated to France with his family early in his childhood. The fashion designer died at Neji Hospital west of Paris, relatives said.

He was the first designer to impress with his experimental fashion in the 1960s.

The rich collection of Pierre Cardino clothing is characterized by avant-garde garments, geometric cuts. The history of fashion will especially remember bubble dresses, jackets that have gained great popularity throughout the world.

“When I showed people my first clothing models 60 years ago, they all said, ‘You’re crazy, no one will ever wear these clothes unconscious,'” said P. Cardin, eternal fashion futurist. But now it can be said that this designer was one step closer to the fashion of the future.

The designer wanted women to feel free and stand out from the crowd with the clothes he created. This led not only to changes in the fashion world at the time, but also to global psychological changes. Women began to be portrayed as strong, exceptional and confident personalities from another world. It soon became a cult among the young.

Brightly colored dresses embroidered with geometric figures, shortened so much that the limits of decency at that time were truly transcended. Latex pants and shoes, large belt buckles, and certainly the hats make it clear that these women have a direct connection to space. Of course, she didn’t forget her husband either. They were also included in the cosmic odyssey.

But a more interesting achievement for the designer is that he combined men’s and women’s fashion. Models in many collections are called unisex, suitable for both sexes. This was the beginning and now a very fashionable phenomenon due to the appearance of men’s clothing details in the women’s wardrobe.

As a personality, Cardin was also very atypical. He is not only a designer, architect, but also a good economist who has run his own fashion house, one of the best restaurants in Paris, has created his own furniture industry and has spread the work of various other designers around the world. Although he has often been criticized for a fairly uniform line in his work, this designer has still impressed the younger generation, which is why his work often reflects details of the futuristic image created by Pierre. Not in vain the motto of his life: “Provoke!”
