Aishwarya Rai, Pooja Batra, Jesse Randhawa, Milind Soman, Arjun Rampal and Marc Robinson walk at Pierre Cardin Fashion Show in Delhi. Pierre Cardin has been a French fashion industry icon since his earliest collections of the 50's and 60's. He became known for his bold, "cosmic", futuristic designs. He was among the first to create a designer line that promoted environmental issues, called "Environmental art." An astute international businessman, Cardin has never borrowed from a bank. He auto-financed everything and reinvested his profits in property. Pierre Cardin's name is on hundreds of products, including men's wear, perfumes, watches, floor tiles, furniture, and others. His business empire extends to more than one hundred countries and indirectly provides employment to almost 200,000
