Wow.
I am in awe.
First of all, if you saw what I saw, you have to admit that this show provoked in you more feelings than the whole Milano Fashion Week.
Cardin has to have one of the craziest heritage codes. Not the cocoon. Not the new look. But "how the people in the 60s imagined the year 2000".
And now we are in 2025.
It is mind-bending.
That was simultaneously very good and very bad, and that is its charm.
Spherical bags where half of your belongings are going to fall through.
Laser cut precision to create silhouettes that are completely demodé.
A giant period pad as a final wedding gown.
Even the soundtrack, with the Bach violin partita (enhanced electronically!🤣) was superpretentious and cheesy.
It feels so genuine, so authentic and so at the service of preserving the memory of Cardin that I have to love it.
