Vtg Pierre Cardin Gold Leaf Necklace

Vtg Pierre Cardin Gold Leaf Necklace Pierre Cardin was a visionary Italian-born French designer who revolutionized fashion in the 1950s and 1960s with his avant-garde, Space Age aesthetic—think sculptural silhouettes, geometric forms, and futuristic accessories that de-emphasized traditional femininity in favor of bold, architectural drama. He opened his own haute couture house in 1950 after stints at Paquin, Schiaparelli, and Dior, and quickly expanded into ready-to-wear, licensing, and accessories like jewelry by the mid-1950s.
