Under Safilo’s licensing arrangement, this is a derivative line responsible for more sculptural experimentation within Pierre Cardin’s eyewear range. In official sales in 2025, limited, numbered models such as Evolution 10 and Evolution 11 Wave were offered, along with models designed by Rodrigo Basilicati Cardin. The line makes strong use of the brand’s geometric motifs, including circles and squares, foregrounding visual composition and exclusivity more than typical eyewear offerings.

The framework for a long-term collaboration in Pierre Cardin’s eyewear category under a global license with Safilo, continuing since the first collection in 1991. The 2025 renewal specified responsibility for the design, manufacture, and distribution of prescription frames and sunglasses, with an emphasis on optical frames. It is broadly deployed as the foundation of the brand’s eyewear business and serves as a vehicle for translating geometric motifs and contemporary design into eyewear. Within this framework, the Evolution line is positioned as a derivative proposal that places greater emphasis on exclusivity and sculptural form.

An upper-tier line derived from pierre cardin’s men’s category, it uses luxury materials such as 100% wool and cashmere, and is centered on tailored suits and blazers. It emphasizes material selection and precise tailoring more than the regular men’s main line, serving to strengthen the brand’s presence in the upper market. For Fall/Winter 2025, Atelier looks were incorporated into the collection, functioning as a small number of special offerings.

A reissue line that restores and re-edits actual past pieces held by the brand for sale. The official website presents unique pieces made decades ago as Heritage after they have been restored at its Paris atelier. Unlike Selection’s new designs and Atelier’s premium menswear offerings, it returns the brand’s assets from each era to the current market as they are, carrying the memory of the collections.
A higher-tier ready-to-wear line that brings runway ideas into everyday life.

A higher-tier line that presents pierre cardin couture as ready-to-wear. The 2025 official profile describes it as a ready-to-wear collection inspired by runway shows and notes that it is offered in multiple sizes. Unlike Heritage’s archive reissues, its role is to present runway-derived new designs as current ready-to-wear, broadening the brand’s offering alongside Atelier’s menswear proposals with enhanced materials.
