A native of Florence, Italy and a member of an exceptionally artistic family, at the aged of 17 Roberto Cavalli was enrolled at the prestigious Institute of Art of Florence. Being a grandson of a prolific painter whose works are still showcased in Uffizi Gallery, the natural flair for the arts was definitely in Roberto’s blood.

Early on, young Cavalli displayed innovativeness and originality as he continually experimented with the availability of new technologies in creating his materials. Perhaps one of his greatest achievements is the introduction of a new printing producer on pure leather, which enabled him to create patchworks that soon led him to cater elite clients with the likes of Hermes and Pierre Cardin. This soon ushered him to the world of fashion and that the age of 30, he launched his very first line of Roberto Cavalli women’s apparel that mainly consisted of ready to wear items that he officially presented at the Pitti Palace in Florence. This was soon followed with a catwalk show in Milan that showed off his natural flair and style as evidenced in all Robert Cavalli clothes, which initially featured prints on denim and leather patchwork along with some ornate decorations with the expert use of brocades, leopard prints and zebra prints.

This has simply become his signature style that has been greatly appreciated by numerous fashionistas all over the world.

His signature designs usually evoke a touch of drama that is skillfully created to be immensely flattering to the female form, paying careful homage to every curve and line. Another wonderful thing about the Cavalli collection is the fact that the choices of fabrics are the latest product of technology in order to create patterns and offer a palette of pulsating colors.
