This piece is part of the exclusive Pierre Cardin Heritage Collection —
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.
From Pierre Cardin's 2003 collection, these playful suspender shorts showcase the designer's continued fascination with graphic lines and unexpected proportions. Crafted in a striped woven fabric featuring earthy bands of olive, camel, burgundy, and violet, the shorts are accented by oversized circular rings that connect the wide shoulder straps to the waistband, creating a striking architectural detail. The high-waisted silhouette is balanced by a relaxed leg, while the open-sided suspender construction lends a whimsical, almost futuristic quality. Equal parts resort wear and wearable art, this rare piece reflects Pierre Cardin's talent for transforming everyday garments into bold statements of design.

Cardin's presentations of this era are considered couture or demi-couture — pieces made custom for individual clients or runway models, never produced for general retail. This may be the original runway piece.
