Roberto Cavalli

Italian, 1940-2024

Whether they’re adorned with understated floral patterns or colorful prints that draw on the wonders of the animal kingdom, vintage Roberto Cavalli dresses and evening gowns, shirts and skirts are unapologetically exuberant. All of the seductive garments crafted at the luxury fashion house have long been associated with extravagance and red-carpet sophistication, and their stories begin in Central Italy.

Roberto Cavalli was born in Florence, Tuscany, in 1940 into an already artistically rich family — his mother was a tailor, and his grandfather, Giuseppe Rossi, was a member of an Italian art movement called Macchiaioli that shared common ground with Impressionist painters. Cavalli was creative at the onset and focused on textiles at the Florence Academy of Art. He garnered some high-profile attention with bold prints on knitwear.

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.

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. While the designer’s printed denim offerings were deemed unsophisticated by the day’s couturiers — they looked down upon the material — Cavalli’s form-fitting, sensual cuts, innovative patchwork and obvious dedication to impeccable craftsmanship found admirers in the likes of Sophia Loren and Brigitte Bardot.

In 1980 Cavalli married former beauty pageant contestant Eva Düringer, who became his trusted business partner. Now a signature of the label, the pair introduced their first sand-blasted jeans in 1994 and later opened boutiques in Venice and elsewhere.

Cavalli’s designs sold all over the world, and the brand’s success helped pave the way for the introduction of a line called Just Cavalli that targeted younger consumers and RC Menswear to complement the array of day dresses, shoes, lingerie and coats and outerwear that were offered in his popular boutiques.

In 2005 Cavalli was asked to help reinvigorate Playboy’s iconic bunny costumes and, in 2006, model Kate Moss starred in his spring/summer ad campaign. A year later, Cavalli created an exclusive collection for H&M and designed costuming for Jennifer Lopez concerts as well as the Spice Girls.

Sicilian designer Fausto Puglisi was appointed creative consultant in 2020 at the Roberto Cavalli brand, which is now owned by Vision Investments.

Roberto Cavalli F/W 2004 Fox Fur Trim Silk Padded Jacket With Leopard Lining

By Roberto Cavalli

Located in BELLEVUE HILL, NSW

An exceptional mainline Roberto Cavalli piece from the celebrated F/W 2004 collection, this jacket is expertly crafted from quilted silk filled with goose down and lavishly trimmed with genuine fox fur along the front opening. It features Cavalli's signature leopard print silk lining and coordinating leopard print trim with leather ties to fasten the front and cuffs, adding a sensual, lingerie-inspired finish that was characteristic of Cavalli's work during this period, while zippered side pockets provide functionality. The F/W 2004 collection embraced Cavalli's unmistakable vision of bohemian glamour, combining rich textures, exotic animal prints, luxurious furs and fluid, body conscious silhouettes. Variations of leopard-print trims, fox fur and similarly opulent outerwear appeared repeatedly throughout both the runway collection and accompanying campaign imagery, making this jacket an instantly recognisable example of one of the house's most iconic eras. Made in Italy. Reference Photos: (1-3) Roberto Cavalli F/W 2004 Fashion...

    How you can tell if a Roberto Cavalli is real depends on what type of piece you're trying to authenticate. Generally, everything that the Italian luxury fashion maker produces, from apparel to watches, will feature its logo or hallmark. As a result, comparing the branding on your piece to images shared by trusted online resources can be a good starting point. From there, research what else to look for to determine the authenticity of your particular type of item. Alternatively, you can seek the opinion of a certified appraiser or other knowledgeable expert. Find a range of Roberto Cavalli apparel, jewelry and accessories on 1stDibs.

    Cavalli Class is the name of a diffusion line at Roberto Cavalli’s eponymous Italian luxury house. The collection includes apparel and accessories, and made its debut in 1997. The company's founder announced plans to move Cavalli Class from Dressing to another manufacturer in 2014. Now known as an outerwear line and called Class Cavalli, it has been distributed by licensing company Swinger International since 2015.

    In the early 1970s the Tuscan designer 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. While Cavalli’s printed denim offerings were deemed unsophisticated by the day’s couturiers (they looked down upon the material), the designer’s form-fitting, sensual cuts, innovative patchwork and obvious dedication to impeccable craftsmanship found admirers in the likes of Sophia Loren and Brigitte Bardot.
