We’re thrilled to offer a rare opportunity to offer garments directly from the official Pierre Cardin archives. Each piece was personally selected by us and is being released to the public for the very first time. Every garment features a “PIERRE CARDIN HERITAGE” cloth label, hand-stitched inside, signifying its authenticity and origin from the historic archives and its place in fashion history.
Year: 1994
*Cardin's ready-to-wear presentations could be considered couture or demi-couture since the garments never went into production for stores. These pieces were made custom for clients or sometimes the runway garments were sold in the boutique and sometimes featured the boutique label.
This is possibly the garment from the runway show. Many of these pieces still bear model names or line-up numbers on the inside.

Description: This exceptional Pierre Cardin piece epitomizes the designer's bold, forward-thinking vision from the 1990s. The standout feature is an architectural white ruffled accessory—a sculptural three-dimensional element reminiscent of a dramatic jabot—crafted from intricately pleated satin plissé fabric. This textured, dimensional component exemplifies Cardin's signature avant-garde approach to fashion. Anchoring the design is a refined white cotton button-down shirt with long sleeves, cut in a classic silhouette that provides elegant contrast to the statement accessory. The marriage of structured tailoring with experimental textile manipulation makes this a distinctive piece for collectors of innovative vintage design. Size Large.
Condition: Gently worn with no obvious damage. I feel the plisse fabric has stretched over the years.
