2005 Black Rayon Cutout Trapeze Dress, Size 4

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.

*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.

Description: A quintessential Pierre Cardin design from the Space Age movement, this black A-line shift dress represents the designer's revolutionary approach to modernist fashion. The sleeveless trapeze silhouette features clean, architectural lines that define the era's forward-thinking aesthetic. A series of graduated circular cutouts descends the center front—Cardin's signature "peekaboo" motif that merges geometric precision with playful innovation. Crafted from quality rayon, the dress exemplifies the designer's mastery of minimalist construction where negative space becomes a design element itself. An exceptional archive piece capturing the transformative moment when haute couture embraced futurism and redefined feminine silhouette through bold, sculptural geometry.

Condition: Gently Worn with no obvious damage
