The fashion house, led since 2020 as CEO and artistic director by Rodrigo Basilicati-Cardin, the nephew of the designer who passed away in 2020, has been selected by the Channel car transport company, Eurotunnel LeShuttle, to create new uniforms for its customer-facing staff.

 

To be unveiled in 2027

 

Set to be unveiled in a few months, these uniforms—available in about twenty styles—will be rolled out in 2027 at the terminals connecting Calais and Folkestone.

 

“With the rollout of these new uniforms,more than 1,200 members of our team will be wearing this new design, the result of a collaboration with the designers at Pierre Cardin,” explained Deborah Merrens, the commercial director of LeShuttle, while emphasizing that “the redesign of LeShuttle’s uniforms is not just a visual refresh, but also anaffirmation of our commitment to offering the best possible experience in modern transportation.”
