PIERRE CARDIN - 1993 Haute Couture Black Wool Sparkle Suit, Size-4

From the Pierre Cardin Heritage Archive

This piece is part of the exclusive Pierre Cardin Heritage Archive — garments personally selected by Vintage Martini from Cardin's official archives and offered publicly for the first time. Each piece bears an authenticated hand-stitched PIERRE CARDIN HERITAGE cloth label documenting its origin and place in fashion history. 

1993 Pierre Cardin wool skirt suit crafted in a subtly shimmering black wool woven with metallic Mylar threads that catch the light with every movement. The architectural jacket features a clean jewel neckline, dramatic slit bell sleeves that balloon at the cuffs, and a striking vertical arrangement of oversized sculptural square appliqués that create Cardin's signature space-age aesthetic. Paired with a sleek straight skirt, the ensemble balances graphic modernism with refined tailoring. A rare example of Cardin's early 1990s design work, showcasing his enduring fascination with geometric forms and futuristic elegance.

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