Pierre Cardin on the cover of L'Officiel (June 1963)

 In memory of a recently deceased fashion great, I'd like to kick off 2021with this cover of L'Officiel:

It depicts an "ensemble de plage" (beach set) by Pierre Cardin.  At first glance it seems to consist of a tunic over a narrower skirt: on a closer look it is a tunic over a pair of knee-length pants.  Variations on this look by Cardin also appear (in black-and-white) inside the magazine.
