The European Commission has informed Pierre Cardin and licensee Ahlers Group that they may have breached EU antitrust rules. The companies are accused of restricting cross-border sales of Pierre Cardin-licensed clothing and sales to specific customers. If found guilty, they could face fines of up to 10% of their turnover. This investigation is part of the Commission's broader effort to crack down on anti-competitive activity in the fashion industry. Other brands such as Caudalie, Nike, and Guess have also faced fines for similar offenses.
