2012 Black & White Jersey Knit Hoop Gown, 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 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: Pierre Cardin's visionary approach to fashion as wearable sculpture reaches its apex in this striking 2012 evening gown. Crafted from luxurious black jersey that molds to the body, the dress features Cardin's signature architectural vocabulary: a dramatic white jersey peplum encircles the hips, anchored by a sculptural hoop and adorned with sparkling crystals at the base. The bold geometric contrast and clean lines exemplify Cardin's pioneering philosophy of utilitarian sculpture, transforming the silhouette into a three-dimensional work of art. A museum-quality piece that captures the designer's revolutionary vision.

Condition: Gently Worn with no obvious damage.
