A silent promise, beyond the light, the moon reflects our dreams, our boldest spark. Guiding us forward – we dare to fly. Sculpted lines, a cosmic glow – The House of Pierre Cardin is taking us to the unknown, a journey of futurism in motion.
The maze of La Villette set the tone. Left, right, I’m lost in thought— my fur jacket became the target of a squirrel gang. The Isle of La Géode as the last fragment falling into place, reflecting visions of what’s to manifest. A gleaming mirror unveiling astral silhouettes, Pierre Cardin FW25-26’s exploration of the moon, the stars, and beyond serves as a reminder that the future of fashion is not just about anticipating what’s next but about daring to imagine what lies ahead.
Pierre Cardin, the visionary whose obsession with the circle—”the moon, the chest, life”—shaped his groundbreaking approach to design. He has long championed the idea that fashion is not confined to the earth beneath our feet but should extend to the stars. A quick interlude, in 1955 he revealed his “Cosmos” dream, bringing to life dresses spun from vinyl, rubber’s gleam, reaffirming that the universe was not just his inspiration, but his destination.
Fast forward, Rodrigo Basilicati-Cardin, the creative force and president of the House, perpetuates his grandfather’s radical vision, dreams encoded in the future. We are set to depart. Sharp geometric forms are leading the way. Fluorescent form-fitting dresses absorb light and re-emit it in vivid colors, evoking a sense of energy and boldness. Spacesuits are revamped from dormant stock, technical fibers, sea wool, and heat-resistant materials. A mad crush for the voluminous quilted purple jackets echoing the soft undulations of zero gravity. Metallic finishes and transparent fabrics add depth and dimension to the futuristic narrative.
Accessories infuse rhythm into the collection. Astronaut-inspired helmets are in a casual procession, calling for enforced usage by Velib users. Hear me out. Aerodynamic frames crafted from high-tech materials are sharp lines and angular contours – the subtle metallic accents add a touch of sophistication. Essentials for the modern-day explorer – your upcoming subway tales. Futurism and sustainability as the pulse of craft. Pierre Cardin FW25-26 is a declaration that tomorrow is here – a world of possibilities.
