- Where was Roberto Cavalli from?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 24, 2024Roberto Cavalli was from Italy. He was born in Florence, Tuscany.
Cavalli (1940–2024) was creative at the onset and focused on textiles while studying at the Florence Academy of Art. In the early 1970s Cavalli unveiled his first namesake collection in Paris and the Sala Bianca of Palazzo Pitti in Florence. He then opened his inaugural boutique in France’s Saint-Tropez in 1972.
After he patented an experimental and revolutionary process that saw him printing on lightweight leather, Cavalli secured commissions from major fashion houses such as Hermès and Pierre Cardin. He explored integrating handmade ornamentation in his designs and found limitless inspiration in the majestic creatures of the jungle.
