1996 Burnt Orange Wool Shorts- SIze 6

FROM THE PIERRE CARDIN ARCHIVES!

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: 1996

*Cardin's ready-to-wear presentations are considered couture or demi-couture since the garments never went into production for stores and were made custom for clients or the runway models were sold in the boutique sometimes featuring the boutique label. 

This is the runway garment from the show. Many of these pieces still bear model names or line-up numbers on the inside.

Description: Tailored in rich rust-colored wool, these 1996 Pierre Cardin shorts showcase the designer’s refined approach to minimalist sportswear. Cut with a high-rise waistband and gently flared leg, the silhouette offers the appearance of a streamlined mini skirt from the front while maintaining the practicality of shorts. Clean lines, subtle shaping through the hips, and a concealed back zipper emphasize the garment’s sleek construction, while the warm autumnal hue highlights the luxurious texture of the wool. Simple yet sophisticated, the design reflects Cardin’s talent for transforming wardrobe essentials into elegant, modern statements.

Condition: Gently Worn with no obvious damage
