Why did Pierre Cardin come to Ukraine immediately after the Chernobyl accident?
2020 continues to take the lives of great people. Yesterday, December 29, at the age of 98, Pierre Cardin, the famous French fashion designer. The activities of the popular couturier have long gone beyond the fashion industry alone. He said, “My name is more important than me.” Today the editors will try to find out if this is true. We will honor the memory of the world-famous designer and tell about his main achievements.
Being a very young boy, Pierre Cardin became interested in clothes. He began his career as an apprentice to a familiar tailor. Later, at the age of 23, the young designer went to conquer the capital of France. New acquaintances led him to the first serious order. Cardin was honored to create costumes for the film Beauty and the Beast.
Only 2 years later, Pierre Cardin became the chief designer of the Christian Dior model house. For 3 years, the master has managed to show the world that he is not afraid of experiments and is not going to play by the rules. So the designer presented the first unisex clothes that will never lose their relevance again. Thanks to Cardin, tunics came into fashion at the time. And also a variety of non-standard cuts.
In the mid-50s, the fashion designer opened his first stores Eve and Adam. The first sold exclusively women's clothing, and the second - men's. By the way, it was Pierre Cardin who changed the fashion thinking of the world. Men began to wear not only restrained monochromatic clothes, but also bright colored outfits. Naturally, this caused outrage and outrage in society.
GettyImages, however, Carden didn't care. He bent his line confidently and did it so professionally that he was admired at the same time. What are his shocking displays right on the street or in the store! The fashion designer never limited himself.
In 1950, Pierre Cardin opened his own fashion house. And he did it not only as a professional designer, but also as an experienced businessman. Its products appeared on the market of Europe, China, Japan, Russia and other countries around the world. No one had dared to do that before him.
In addition to fashionable clothes and accessories, Cardin began to produce perfumes, interior items and various household items, such as alarm clocks or pans. Think of it! The talented designer created his empire, which became recognizable even by the most distant people from fashion.
GettyImages After 7 years, Cardin went to Japan. There, the fashion designer received an honorary title and became a professor at the Japanese College of Fashion and Design. 2 years later, the master released a collection of prêt-a-porter. These are clothes that anyone can buy. The act stirred the public, and the designer was removed from the list of the Paris Fashion Association.
In 1961, the fashion designer opened another store with more classic clothes. After another 5 years, Cardin visited New York, where he presented his avant-garde collections. The designer was received so warmly that he opened his boutique there.
At the same time in the world began a real "space fever". The conquest of extraterrestrial spaces became a source of inspiration for the fashion designer. This led to the creation of futuristic costumes. Moreover, Pierre Cardin later began to create a unique design for NASA.
Pierre Cardin’s other activities were not only fashion-related. In 1970, he bought a theater complex in Paris. Espace Pierre Cardin is a popular venue where many foreign theater stars performed. At one time, the designer managed to collaborate with film diva Marlene Dietrich and ballerina Maya Plisetskaya. The latter became the real muse of Cardin.
In 1981, the fashion designer bought the most famous restaurant in Paris Maim’s. This place is included in the list of historical monuments of the capital. Cardin not only modernized the institution, but also opened its branches in other cities of the world.
Despite his advanced age, Pierre Cardin continued to create until the last. Collections and catalogues of clothes are constantly replenished and please the fans of the designer. Unfortunately, it is not yet known what the fate of the famous brand. We are confident that he will be in good hands.
In 2002, Pierre Cardin received the Order of Francis Skaryna. The fashion designer made a significant contribution to the development of Belarusian-French relations in the field of culture. He also assisted in overcoming the results of the Chernobyl accident.
Surprisingly, it was the Chernobyl disaster that introduced Cardin to Ukraine. In his interviews, he noted that he treats this country and its people with special trepidation. Moreover, as a representative of UNESCO, the designer took part in the closure of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant reactor.
In general, Carden's charitable activities will be on the radar for a long time. This man not only helped those in need, but also tried to establish cultural and scientific ties with other countries of the world.
GettyImages Famous fashion designer He once said, “Wealth only spins the heads of morons; I only need money to create.” It seems that Pierre Cardin gave the world more than just colored stockings and tall boots. He became an example of a hardworking and calculating person who confidently moved towards his goal. Bright memory to the great professional!
