He began his career by making costumes for Jean Cockteau's legendary production of 'Beauty and the Beast.' After apprenticing to Jeanne Paquin and Elsa Schiaparelli, Cardin played a major part in the development of the New Look at Christian Dior, then started his own house where he created the Beatles' iconic collarless suits and outfitted all of the actors in 'The Avengers' television series.
