The Roberto Cavalli Man: a full immersion in style and color, a mix of elements of technology which announces the future and tradition which respects the past.

"Year 2000...The change I first thought non existent will be deep. The woman needs to go out of her boundaries, discover fantasy and overcome anchored taboos."

The bearing of Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots. The shamelessness of a sex kitten. The romanticism of a nomad accustomed to Iiving in the extreme Iuxury of gardens of Eden around the world.

Time: 8:15 a.m. ... sun already ablaze on the horizon... coming out of a motel in southern Florida, he finds a freshly waxed apricot'59 Jaguar convertible outside waiting, all set to go... Destination: Saint Tropez.

FROM GLAM ROCK TO GLAM CHIC "Beauty is like dancing planets" Maurice Béjart Roberto Cavalli's women undulate in an extraordinary luminous galaxy speckled by thousands of stars.

2000! Where is the break-through? Man remains himself, with all good and evil. Any time of the day, in any state of mind, Roberto Cavalli's motto for the Fall/Winter collection is "With the tie, we will strangle the last king…Here comes the revolution".

Metamorphosis time… with wild animal spots, fish scales and python skins giving way to creatures ever more sinuous.

UnderWear Spring Summer 2001 n°2

Victorian Age and Aspen Sixties: two main themes of the Roberto Cavalli 2001/2002 fall/winter collection. Récherché proportions and particulars, subtle Victorian sensations.

The Roberto Cavalli man is a traveler… an “Easy Rider” at home the world over… a boundless explorer in continual pursuit…

Underwear Fall / Winter Collection 2001-2002 Color, sensuality and sophistication. These are the elements used by Roberto Cavalli to turn the Lingeries World upside down, transforming underwear from a hidden and quite forbidden accessory into a main element of womens wear, into something that could be proudly revealed and showed.

HOT SPOTS. ARABIAN OUTBACK Roberto Cavalli continues his journey. Setting out to discover an imaginary aesthetic all sensations, memories, shapes and colours. An active, dynamic lifestyle. “Dust busters” looking for powerful emotions, a cross section of whatever’s new, unusual, unexplored. Movement versus contemplation. Travellers of distinction ever wavering between folk influences and sport references.

MAGNIFICENT MIRAGES An extravagant container where objects are taken out of their daily context. A world where everything bathes in it’s own glory, where nothing, to all appearances, follows a defined direction yet, as a whole finds a sense of belonging, a bond, a link.

Indies On Stage Contemporary hybrids. Expressive evolution. “Indy”, a new taste mixed and updated in unusual stylistic puzzles. People on the run: wonderfully strange and modern Indian tribes on a « rusted » stage, where wood and color blend together in a unique concept.

A double life: Aristocrats for whom the hunt is a way of life, where ancestral customs have governed daily existence at the family seat since childhood.

A house in the Tuscan countryside, a woman lying in a deck chair sunbathing, lost in daydreams of distant travel...

MATA HARI From Bollywood to the subcontinental forest, a digital jungle – techno futurist – all neon and plexiglass. Unconventionality the 1920s way, tribute to Paul Poiret and Leon Bakst revisited with a streetstyle slant.

CONTEMPORARY CZARINA On the wings of an Eastern wind, Just Cavalli girls take an extravagant flight of fantasy revisiting the great Russian tradition.
