I can go all over the world with just three outfits: a blue blazer and gray flannel pants, a gray flannel suit, and black tie..

When I finish with one thing very well, I start some other thing. I don't like to stop. I like to continually prove myself..

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

I do not believe there has ever been a name as important as Pierre Cardin in the general history of couture..

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

My name is more important than myself..

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

The jean! The jean is the destructor. It is a dictator! It is destroying creativity! The jean must be stopped!.

The dress is a vase which the body follows. My clothes are like modules in which bodies move..

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

My old vintage designs are so popular now. I must have been on to something..

Fashion design is so diverse. It does not have clear identities as before with Balenciaga, Chanel, Cardin, Courreges. Design is about being recognise….

I wash with my own soap-wear my own perfume...got to bed on my own sheets... have my own food products. I live on me..
