French Fashion Designer, Pierre Cardin Dies At 98
French fashion designer, Pierre Cardin died at a hospital in Neuilly, west of Paris, on Tuesday at the age of 98, France’s Fine Arts Academy announced on Tuesday in a statement on Twitter.
“The Perpetual Secretary, Laurent Petitgirard, and the members of the Academy of Fine Arts are deeply saddened to announce the death of their colleague Pierre Cardin. He had been elected on 12 February 1992 to the chair of Pierre Dux,” the Fine Arts Academy said.
Cardin was born in Italy in 1922 but emigrated to France as a young child. He founded his own fashion house in 1950 after a stint with Christian Dior and built up a global business empire.
Pierre Cardin, the fashion designer known for his space-age-informed 1960s dresses, has passed away in Neuilly, France at the age of 98.
As well as his designs, Cardin is famous for being an early adapter of the licensing deals that are a mainstay of fashion houses today, putting his name and brand on products including fragrances, aeroplane interiors and sunglasses. It is very difficult to make a name in fashion. When you have one, you need to profit from it, Cardin told AFP last year. If I made money through the licensing it was to be free and do something other than fashion.
