Pierre Cardin

Pierre Cardin was a French fashion designer known for avant-garde and futuristic designs in the mid-to-late twentieth century.

He pioneered ready-to-wear fashion and aggressive brand licensing, putting his name on everything from furniture to cigarettes.

The name now evokes both innovative 1960s style and the commercial dilution of a fashion house through overextension.
