From the Cosmocorps collections inspired by Space, to sculptural creations, through design innovations, the Cardin House has created a complete universe on a global scale. Its story still resonates today through a new chapter embodied by Rodrigo Basilicati-Cardin, president of the group and artistic director since 2020. R. Basilicati-Cardin maintains the relevance of the Cardin brand story and identity in the fashion industry today, while emphasizing sustainability.
