Princess Carolina stunned in a deep blue off the shoulder dress which featured a unique white border.
Her ensemble was completed with silver pointed heels and her blonde locks were swept back in a slick glamorous style.
The model’s glam makeup enhanced their flawless complexion and was completed with an extravagant shimmering blue eye shadow look.
Their mother, Camilla de Bourbon des Deux Sicilies, attended the show to support the launch of her daughter’s modelling careers, and beamed while posing for a photograph with the pair.
As the sisters have become the face of Pierre Cardin’s newest line, they will add catwalk models to their list of achievements – having also become TV stars this summer.
Last month the sisters announced they would be starring in ‘Côte d’Azur: In the Privacy of Billionaires, Stars & Princesses’ on the French streaming service, myCANAL.
In a snippet of the show shared on Instagram, Princess Carolina appeared to take a humble approach while shopping for sandals at a French market. ‘I’m not interested in the brand,’ she said.
During the clip, the sisters are seen enjoying the culture, restaurants and stunning views that the French town has to offer.

The news comes shortly after Chiara hit back at rumours she’s dating Prince Christian of Denmark.

She wrote: ‘I would like to set the records straight with regards to the unfounded rumour that has been circulating about me. Prince Christian and I share a close friendship.’

The glamorous socialite added that ‘at first, this situation made me smile’ as she further discussed the ‘inaccurate information’.
However, Chiara, the daughter of Prince Carlo, Duke of Castro, and Princess Camilla, Duchess of Castro, added: ‘I believe it is now time to put an end to this rumour. When important events will occur in my life, I will be happy to share them with you.’
Her statement read: ‘I would like to set the records straight with regards to the unfounded rumour that has been circulating about me. Prince Christian and I share a close friendship.
‘However, some inaccurate information has been disseminated. At first, this situation made me smile; however, over time, this rumour has exceeded the limits of common sense and has spiralled becoming at odds with reality.
‘I believe it is now time to put an end to this rumour. When important events will occur in my life, I will be happy to share them with you. While we all enjoy dreaming of fairy tales, what truly matters is reality.’

Speculation on whether the two were dating began in May when a group photo emerged on social media of the duo standing close together at the Monaco Grand Prix.
It was then reported that the prince – son of Crown Prince Frederik and Princess Mary – had hosted Chiara in Denmark in June, making the brave decision to introduce her to his grandmother, the Danish monarch.
‘Chiara was in awe of the Queen – it’s been a dream of hers to meet such an iconic female ruler and she’s been practising her curtsies for months,’ the source told Women’s Day.
Chiara, who spent her summer in St Tropez with her sister Carolina, 20, then recently told Italian paper Corriere: ‘We’ve known each other since we were little, my father Carlo is godfather to his younger sister.’
Her father Prince Carlo holds a claim to the now defunct throne of the former House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies, a cadet branch of the Spanish royal family , which descends from the Capetian Dynasty and ruled over Southern Italy and Sicily during the 18th and 19th centuries.
Meanwhile, her mother, Duchess Camilla, born Crociani, is the daughter of Italian industry Tycoon Camilla Crociani and the actress Edy Vessel.
While Chiara seemingly likes to appear in the public eye, it seems Prince Christian has kept his private life quiet and has said he won’t take a royal pension when he turns 18.
He will only take money from the royal grant if his father ascends the throne, and will remain limited in his royal duties until he turns 21.
