So, who is he?
Even if you haven’t heard of Pierre Cardin, you’re probably familiar with his creations. The 97-year-old French fashion designer is a living legend of the couture world, with a number of groundbreaking designs to his name. After spells spent working for the likes of Jeanne Paquin, Elsa Schiaparelli and Christian Dior, Cardin set off to found his own fashion house – imaginatively named Pierre Cardin – in 1950.
