Sumary of Pierre Cardin launches an environmental award:
Pierre Cardin’s business model based on licensing was once revolutionary, but it is completely atypical for our time.
The Cosmocorps 3022 show was held at the Air and Space Museum in Le Bourget.
Since then, his brand has been managed by his nephew, Rodrigo Basilicati-Carden.
“Fashion is the second most polluting industry after the oil business.
My uncle was a firm believer in this,” Rodrigo told a press conference at the Maxim’s restaurant in Paris, which Pierre Cardin bought in 1981.
An engineer by training, Rodrigo is preparing to show a collection made entirely from recycled materials, and to coincide with the centenary of the founder of the famous brand.
Fashion house Pierre Cardin presents the Prix Bulles Cardin sustainability award, the first winners of which will be announced on 18 May.
