FASHIONmode 45 – ‘Pierre Cardin & The Marriage Of Fashion And Art´

In this weeks FASHIONmode show, Charles Daniel McDonald investigates the life of Pierre Cardin and the impact his holistic approach to design had on the international fashion industry. He also takes a look at some of the upcoming collaborations between the fashion and art scenes that are taking place in Paris; from Maison Margiela’s Lafayette art show to Kenny Scharf’s collaboration with Dior men’s designer Kim Jones and Alber Elbaz’s grand return to fashion, via film.

Once upon a time there was a very beautiful city called Paris. It was famed for fashion and regarded for its style so much that all the Kings, Princesses and Queens wanted to be associated with it. This story is captivating – imagine a knitted suit so iconic, you could tell the designer simply by looking at it. Then, the ability to make lips a colour so striking, it both empowered and sensualised women of every class, all across the world. Our story ends by visiting an imposing castle at sunset – where we lay our weary heads surrounded by the Chateau’s Christmas Couture and all lived fashionably ever after.
