269. Happy Birthday Gabriele!269. Tanti Auguri Gabriele!

Roberto Cavalli with Gabriele269. Happy Birthday Gabriele!

Today I celebrated my grandson’s birthday.
An angel named Gabriele… he came down from heaven to make us all happy….

I love spending time with my children and grandchildren… being a grandfather is like being a father again… but with more time… without worries… and with a lifetime of experience to tell and pass on…

Who knows which path Gabriele will choose to follow.. will he be an artist like his grandfather… or will he become a famous lawyer… the advice that I will give him is to always follow what he feels in his heart… because the heart is never wrong!

I decided to take a few days off. The Just Cavalli, Roberto Cavalli fashion shows and the opening of the boutique in Via Montenapoleone have taken up most of my time in recent months.

A race against time… an endless work that culminates in fifteen minutes on the runway… I call it the exam… and like every exam it must be prepared for down to the smallest details…

I love reading your messages and comments in the press… your feedback is what really matters to me… was I able to make you dream once again?

But I know… I cannot sit quiet for a long time… I’m already thinking about my next trip and the ideas for the next collection…

I can not stop creating… it’s the heart that commands me…

Vi abbraccio, forte, forte…

I LOVE YOU

Roberto Cavalli

Roberto Cavalli with Gabriele269. Tanti Auguri Gabriele!

Oggi ho festeggiato il compleanno di mio nipote.
Un angelo chiamato Gabriele… sceso dal paradiso per renderci felici…

Adoro passare il tempo con i miei figli e nipoti… essere nonno e come essere padre una seconda volta… ma con più tempo a disposizione… senza preoccupazioni… e con una vita di esperienze da raccontare… da tramandare…

Chissà quale strada Gabriele sceglierà di seguire… sarà un artista come il nonno… oppure diventerà un famoso avvocato… il consiglio che voglio dargli è quello di seguire sempre quello che sente nel suo cuore… perché il cuore non sbaglia mai!

Ho deciso di prendermi qualche giorno di riposo. Le sfilate e l’apertura della Boutique di via Montenapoleone hanno impegnato la maggior parte del mio tempo negli ultimi mesi.

Una corsa contro il tempo… un lavoro infinito che culmina in quindici minuti scarsi di passerella… io lo chiamo l’esame…. e come ogni esame deve essere preparato fin nei minimi dettagli…

Mi piace leggere i vostri messaggi e i commenti sulla stampa specializzata… il vostro feedback è quello che conta veramente per me… sono riuscito ancora una volta a farvi sognare?

Ma so già che non riuscirò a starmene tranquillo per molto tempo… sto già pensando al mio prossimo viaggio e agli spunti per la prossima collezione…

Non riesco a smettere di creare… è il cuore che me lo comanda…

Vi abbraccio, forte, forte…

I LOVE YOU

Roberto Cavalli

    Maestro,

    What a humble soul you have. May God Bless you abundantly, and He Already Has :) Thank you for this because I see a “different” you in this blog. A kind and wonderful person who wants more for his viewers and fans like me. I am bedridden and in an electric wheelchair from a disease I never knew I had. I was born with this and I made it to 50! God Is Good. Your show was Beautiful and the models and format was brilliant! Watching your show(s) online I always look forward to every season and it gives me Strength because I am a woman who loves to dress up, put on Jewelry even though I must stay in bed and can’t barely walk anymore. Nothing stops me and my will to live and fight and my love for fashion has taught me to be “humble”. I wish you the best on your grand opening in Via Montenapoleone and I applaud you Maestro, Bravo! Happiest birthday to your grandson, Gabrielle and maybe, who knows — he may just be like you and carry on your legacy for the future. An artist!

    Un abrazo,
    Maribelll Caban
