They said pret-a-porter will kill your name, and it saved me

I have a name, I have to take advantage of it.

The jean! The jean is the destructor. It is a dictator! It is destroying creativity! The jean must be stopped!

I do not believe there has ever been a name as important as Pierre Cardin in the general history of couture.

Fashion design is so diverse. It does not have clear identities as before with Balenciaga, Chanel, Cardin, Courreges. Design is about being recognised without a label. Elegance alone is not sufficient.

The dress is a vase which the body follows. My clothes are like modules in which bodies move.

When I finish with one thing very well, I start some other thing. I don't like to stop. I like to continually prove myself.
