Pierre Cardin

“They said pret-a-porter will kill your name, and it saved me.”

“The only one who is alive today and still being talked about is Pierre Cardin.”

“My name is more important than myself.”

“We undress men and women, we don't dress them any more.”

“I have a name, I have to take advantage of it.”

“I was very lucky, I was part of the post-war period when everything had to be redone.”
