174. The First Days of 2013…

I have so much to tell you, I want to feel surrounded by love and respect. I will be brief so as not to bore you…

I’m not kidding when I talk of you as dear friends, many are, many followed me from the beginning and if I do not show signs of myself in a while, many of you become anxious. I could almost begin to call you “my big family.” I do not know why I started to tell you about myself, my daily adventures, but now I cannot stop… my life is part of yours… your lives are part of mine… DO YOU LOVE ME? I LOVE YOU!

I am going to tell you what happened after my short holiday in Dubai. I went to Beirut to inaugurate the CAVALLI CAFE situated on one of its most important streets… very nice! My style, my fashion shown in a lovely cafe restaurant!

I arrive at 10 pm… thousands of fans are screaming and anxiously waiting for me so that we can get our pictures taken together. I fuel up my adrenaline and I start to play as a star! After two hours, the same plane that took me to Beirut brings me back to Milan!

On my return to Italy I start to feel not so well. I will not keep you in apprehension but because of a strong colic I am transported urgently to hospital in Milan. I am telling you this just to let you know the cause of my silence! I was discharged this afternoon and I’m happy to finally sleep in my bed!

Daniele Cavalli

Sunday the 13th my son Daniele had organized a special evening to present the autumn – winter 2013 menswear collection… a great success… a unique evening… very innovative!

I missed this event… I was updated minute by minute by being on the phone with Daniele. Perhaps this great feeling made me heal faster!

The Surgeon who took care of my colic put me on a resting regime and he insisted I not push on the accelerator of my life for the next month! It will not be easy… I should begin to take care of myself a little more!

I will not stop thinking about you, take care of yourselves too…

I LOVE YOU
Roberto Cavalli

Avrei tantissime cose da raccontarvi. Desidero sentirmi circondato di affetto e stima ma sarò molto breve per non perdervi, per non annoiarvi!

Non scherzo quando parlo di voi come cari amici, molti lo sono, mi hanno seguito fin dall’inizio e se non do segni di vita, molti sono in ansia. Potrei quasi cominciare a chiamarla “la mia grande famiglia”. Non so perché ho incominciato a raccontarvi di me, delle mie avventure giornaliere, ma adesso non posso smettere… la mia vita e parte della vostra… e la vostra e parte della mia… MI VOLETE BENE? I LOVE YOU!

Dopo la mia breve vacanza a Dubai sono andato a Beirut per inaugurare il CAVALLI CAFFÈ in una delle vie più importanti… molto bello! Il mio stile, la mia moda nell’arredamento di un delizioso caffè ristorante!

Sono arrivato alle 10 di sera, migliaia di fans mi aspettavano urlando e trepidando per avere una foto con me! Ho messo in moto la mia adrenalina e mi sono messo a fare la star! Dopo due ore sono ripartito per Milano con lo stesso aereo che mi ha accompagnato a Beirut!

Al mio rientro in Italia ho iniziato a sentirmi poco bene. Non voglio tenervi in ansia ma a causa di una forte colica sono stato trasportato con urgenza in ospedale a Milano. Ve lo racconto solo per farvi capire la causa del mio silenzio! Sono stato dimesso questo pomeriggio e sono felice di dormire finalmente nel mio letto!

Daniele Cavalli

Domenica 13 mio figlio Daniele ha organizzato una serata speciale per presentare la collezione uomo autunno – inverno 2013… grande successo… una serata unica… molto innovativa!

Questo evento l’ho perso… ma l’ho seguito minuto per minuto al telefono con Daniele. Forse questa emozione mi ha fatto guarire più velocemente!

Il professore che mi ha operato ha insistito affinché non spinga sull’acceleratore del mio sistema di vita nel prossimo mese!
Non sarà facile… dovrò incominciare a pensare un po’ a me stesso!

Non smetterò di pensare anche a voi… prendetevi cura di voi…

I LOVE YOU

Roberto Cavalli Men’s Autumn/Winter 2013-14

Franca-Sozzani-Daniele-Cavalli1.jpg January 14, 2013 350 × 233 Edit Image Delete Permanently THE GENTLEMEN’S CLUB

When did the Gentlemen’s Club tradition begin?

Probably in 1693 in London with White’s, which at the time was simply a refined chocolatier. Nevertheless, it already presented the foundations, which in the 19th century, made these British clubs an unmistakable lifestyle reference point for men.

Whether noble descendants or industrial middle-class, in these Clubs gentlemen dined, smoked, played billiards, commented on the cricket or spoke about the latest ephemeral gossip, using the same elegant (but false) indifference they portrayed when choosing their attire.

A way of dressing which in reality was very polished, rigorous and characterized by an extraordinary attention to detail.

A special and distinctive way of dressing.

Cavalli adores elegance, sartorial character and rigor, sweeping away the dusty reminiscence of the past and in contrast adding a gentleman’s spirit which is uninterested in appearing eccentric. He is instead open to everything which makes him feel special: the preciousness of fabrics, the uniqueness of a print, in the engineering of a combination.

Roberto Cavalli, by some means, does not want to follow the stylistic values of the Cavalli woman, but he ambitiously seeks to seduce and impress that woman with a mature elegance that lays between tradition and modernity.

Is it a way to abdicate from the male image suggested until this moment? Surely it is the beginning of a new chapter in the brand’s history.

And in the act of writing the first page, Roberto Cavalli together with his son Daniele committed to the epitome of menswear tradition: that of the British style presented in the first Gentlemen’s Clubs and duly combined with the reverie in the era of technology and social networks.

A new philosophy of style, but also of communicating as the fashion shows and the manors of presenting the collections are the first and foremost headlines in conveying the latest creations.

A globalized and rapid form of communication.

So then, no fashion shows this season. The reason? The runway and the long walk before the public and photographers enhances and highlights the spectacular nature of feminine seduction. The same does not apply to the male essence.

On the contrary, this might be the motive behind the skepticism of many men towards fashion.
This collection aims at celebrating male reality.

172. Will You Live Without Me?

I entered the Christmas spirit! I spend several hours wandering among the shops in Florence. I do not have a clear idea of what to put under the tree for my children and friends… is not easy!

I have some meetings, nothing interesting to bring to your desire to know about my days…

After Christmas, I decided to spend a little holiday until the fifth of January with three of my children and grandchildren. Nothing special to tell you, but very special to me!

So, I think I will leave you alone until 2013…

I will miss you a lot… I will have a great desire to speak to you and to tell you about my days. Your presence in my life has become addictive. I shall be waiting for your comments, hoping that there will be new friends every day.

Roberto Cavalli with Giorgio Verzoletto

In the meantime I will tell my friend Giorgio Verzoletto, the special and talented person who takes good care of the technical side of my BLOG, to entertain you with pictures of beautiful models wearing Cavalli and the talented actresses who, in these days of great parties, will wear my dresses!

It will be just my hoarse voice… unheard. My presence and imagination will always be with you!

I LOVE YOU
172. Potrete Vivere Senza di Me?

Sono entrato nell’atmosfera natalizia! Trascorro diverse ore vagando fra le vetrine dei negozi di Firenze. Non ho le idee chiare su cosa far trovare sotto l’albero ai miei figli e amici… non è facile!

Ho qualche meeting, niente d’interessante da sottoporre alla vostra voglia di conoscere le mie giornate…

Dopo Natale, ho deciso di trascorrere un po’ di vacanze fino al 5 gennaio con tre dei miei figli e nipotini. Niente di speciale da raccontarvi, ma molto speciale per me!

Quindi, penso che vi lascerò soli fino al 2013…

Sentirò tantissimo la vostra mancanza. Avrò tanta voglia di parlarvi e raccontarvi. La vostra presenza nella mia vita è diventata una droga. Aspetto i vostri commenti e spero che ogni giorno ci saranno nuovi amici.

Roberto Cavalli with Giorgio Verzoletto

Nel frattempo dirò al mio amico Giorgio Verzoletto, la persona speciale e brava che cura la parte tecnica del mio BLOG, di farvi divertire con qualche foto di bellissime modelle vestite Cavalli e qualche brava attrice che in questi giorni di grandi feste indossa i miei abiti!

Sarà solo la mia rauca voce a non farsi sentire. La mia presenza e fantasia non vi lasceranno soli!

I LOVE YOU
