Growing up in Italy and moving to France at the age of 15, Pierre Cardin took his first steps in the fashion industry working in the most iconic fashion houses of the time. In particular, Jeanne Paquin’s fashion studio and Elsa Schiaparelli’s. Having opened his first Haute Couture store at a young age, he became known for his avant-garde style and ‘space age’ design, and it is not surprising. The 1960s marked the beginning of the era of space exploration.
Noteworthy, in addition to clothing, perfume, watches, magazines, and even furniture under his own brand, since the 1960s, he began to produce costume jewelry. Jewelry labeled “Pierre Cardin” has its own individual style, modern and elegant, influenced by different cultures. According to Pierre Cardin, a woman who wants to look elegant needs good jewelry. The couturier preferred geometric shapes and architectural ornaments in dresses and jewelry. This was due to the fact that Cardin studied architecture in his youth.
“If my dresses were made of bronze, I would be called a sculptor”, said he. This is also true in respect of his jewelry.
