Pierre Cardin's will presented by his nephew, who considers himself the heir to his entire fortune, was invalidated by the courts. The Paris Court of Appeal rendered a ruling on January 25 that AFP was able to consult this Friday, February 9, which does not recognize what was presented as a will of Pierre Cardin, who died in December 2020 at the age of 98.

The designer known worldwide for his bubble dresses and his love story with actress Jeanne Moreau did not have children. His estate includes twenty-two heirs, nephews, nieces, great-nephews and great-nieces.
