“I am very pleased with my design… my colours… and my ideas!

My muse was a young woman who became part of my collection…
From the moment I saw her walking along the river which passes through the city of Thimphu… the capital of Bhutan, a small country located at 3000 meters above sea level, at the slopes of the Himalayas… a country characterized by the richness of its traditions and images, which combine nature and religion…
His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen, a young couple as delicate and charming as the lifestyle of this fascinating country invited me, giving me the opportunity to discover this country, the only one in the world to measure its richness according to the value of happiness … 
I could not return to my world without making an effort to convey the emotions I felt… I was awed by their purity and the beauty of their colors!” 

Roberto Cavalli

The Just Cavalli Fall/Winter 2013-2014 collection describes an exotic and exciting journey which appears to hover between ancient and contemporary times: the lightness of the fabrics and the magnificence of the traditional Asian decorative elements are embedded in the prints and highlighted in the textiles.   
The silk jumpsuits’ flowing silhouette enhances the femininity of the female body by gliding almost imperceptibly along the skin, and super-slim pants are combined with matching or contrasting printed outerwear.
The dresses are short and sensual, paired with deconstructed jackets; or long and fitted, completed by fur micro vests.   
The knitwear plays with volumes, often in dégradé jacquard animal print, occasionally embellished by quilted silk sleeves, or high-neck and sleeveless in soft angora wool.   
The prints, which represent the most distinctive and iconic Cavalli element, are inspired by the traditional Bhutanese culture and garments.
Opulent metallic sequin embroideries are placed on pants and jackets and are also used to decorate the denim.   
The colours are vibrant and intense: blue, orange, yellow, red and jade.   Boots with a red cylinder heel are created in python leather and jaguar printed pony or in leather combined with goatskin.
Velvet open-toe ankle-boots, with stylized flame print soles and the same red heel, are decorated with small buttons. 
The wraparound style acetate sunglasses come in bright colors with mirrored lenses.
Some outfits present the refined necklaces created with silk threads and jade ornaments, worn by the Bhutanese aristocracy and called “tears of the gods”.

Roberto Cavalli Autumn/Winter 2013-14 Men’s Collection special feature published in the January 31st, 2013 issue of Grazia Italy

Roberto Cavalli Woman Fall / Winter 2013-14 Pre-Collection

The Roberto Cavalli Fall/Winter 2013-2014 pre-collection is inspired by the roots and the history of the Maison Cavalli.

The study of the city of Florence in the Renaissance period, its paintings, its colors and most of all its decorations along with Villa Cavalli itself with its rich walls and precious objects, brought to a rediscovery for the taste of true craftsmanship, inspired by the tapestries and brocades that decorate the house.

The prints recreate the appearance of the carbon sketching technique used by Renaissance masters in the early phases of the creation of frescoes and we added strong, evident colors like red and yellow.

The silhouette of this season distinguishes itself for its simple lines, fitted to the body but not overly tight, and straight at the bottom. Tube dresses with a newer and more fashionable length which arrives significantly below the knee. Dresses with a slight flair which arrives mid-thigh. The sheath dresses with the simplest shapes are extremely decorated and enriched by engineered prints with embroideries that follow the prints.

Other pieces have black embroideries applied to create a transparent effect. Lace is once again a must this season. You find it combined with the prints where it is used to at the necklines, the waist and the hemline. The strongest dresses are in black leather to add contrast. The pencil skirts are super slim and very sexy with high slits.

The jackets are characterized by structured shoulders and straight lines. Coats are very important in this collection and are either straight or fitted with animal prints on tweed.

The color palette for this season was inspired by the works of Florentine artists. From the masterpieces of Botticelli and Donatello came colors like bitter chocolate and camel, while from the artworks of Masaccio and Ghirlandaio came the saturated colors of the earth such as dark emerald, sapphire, yellow persimmon, red cranberry and mauve.

The ‘Diva bag’ underwent a careful restyling. The models, created with refined and precious materials, have been enriched in every detail making them perfect and timeless.
The new Florence shoes, within the comfortable and chunky daytime metal heel, evoke the scaled motif of the Florence bag.
The jewellery is opulent and exquisite, characterized by the snake theme, symbol of the Cavalli Maison.
