Pierre Cardin

Cardin Holding
No items found.

Pierre Cardin is a French fashion house known for its ready-to-wear lines, accessories, and licensed lifestyle products. Once a symbol of avant-garde couture, the label today operates largely through licensing agreements that expand its reach into mass-market fashion.

Behind the brand’s global presence are licensing partnerships that link it to exploitative supply chains. Pierre Cardin’s production has included ties to Delta Galil Industries, an Israeli textile company that operates in occupied Palestinian territories. These connections embed the brand in systems of dispossession and occupation, making it a clear boycott target.

Human Rights Violations
Environmental Harm
Military & Conflict Complicity

By licensing agreements that connect to Delta Galil, the Pierre Cardin estate profits from supply chains embedded in occupation and apartheid infrastructure. These settlements violate international law and sustain a system of forced displacement and military occupation.
