2000 Lime Wool Carwash Skirt Suit, Size 8

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: S/S 2000

*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. 

Many of these pieces still bear model names or line-up numbers on the inside. 

Labels: Evolution de Pierre Cardin / Pierre Cardin Heritage

Color: Lime Green 

Fabric: Wool Crepe

Description: This striking Pierre Cardin suit from 2000 showcases the designer's signature architectural vision. The metallic lime wool blazer features a commanding standing collar and structured silhouette, accented by innovative applique detailing and a cleverly positioned right-side pocket that mimics a cross-body bag design. Long sleeves finish with dramatic wide cuffs. The coordinating skirt descends below the knee with released pleats that transition into a flattering car-wash hem, creating movement and dimension. A true statement piece that exemplifies early 2000s haute couture craftsmanship.

Condition: Gently Worn with no obvious damage
