“All over the world people don’t treat me like a fashion designer, they treat me like a rock star… I can’t walk down 5th Avenue without being treated like a rock star. In fact maybe it’s more than a rock – many times I’ve walked down 5th Avenue with rock stars and nobody pays attention to them. It’s very strange.” – Roberto Cavilli to Wallpaper magazine when asked about something that was completely unrelated.

Check out this luxurious coat with removable collar…I might get some hate mail for talking about fur, and I do wish that this was faux, but this is what you come to expect of Cavalli.
I’m also always surprised by the difference between what was on the runway and the actual product in store…

Marissa Moshell, Student/Contributor July 22 at 1:28
Read More:a.f. vandevorst, Adam, Albino, alexander mcqueen, alexander wang, Alexandre Herchcovitch, Ann Demeulemeester, Balenciaga, Donna Karan, erdem, fall 09, Haider Ackermann, lanvin, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, moschino, PHI, Prada, proenza schouler, roberto cavalli, rodarte, Spring 2010
With their Fall ‘09 collections having hit the runway, we’re expecting just as great of a show for Spring 2010 from these top 20 designers.
MAINSTREAMERS
Alexander McQueen:
Each of McQueen’s Fall ‘09 pieces were sculpted to perfection to create forms in unique patterns and versatile shapes.
Marc Jacobs:
Marc Jacobs was all about the bright colors with this collection. Grabbing inspiration from 80s fashion, the neon hues and big shoulders were a hit on the runway.
Prada:
With fur shapes, wool suits, and some knee high boots, Prada styles hit the runway in edgy fashion
Balenciaga:
With draped satin and silk, paired with fitted tops and flowy dresses, the Balenciaga collection was all about luxury and versatility.
Louis Vuitton:
Bubble skirts, coats, and a ton of accessories marched down the runway for Louis Vuitton Fall’09, of course, bright colors added that perfect touch on all pieces.
Donna Karan:
Fitted coats and long skirts accessorized with belts and necklaces produced a strong collection for Donna Karan this fall.
Alexander Wang:
Focusing mostly on blacks and whites, Alexander Wang explored much more with textures for fall ‘09. With each style paired with a matching accessory models looked the part from head to toe.
Moschino:
Ruffles and roses were at the forefront of Moschino’s line up for this Fall ‘09 collection. Navy and black dresses with a hint of red adds that special something to each piece.
Roberto Cavalli:
Lace leggings, fur jackets, and knitted fabrics were all part of Roberto Cavalli’s image for Fall ‘09.
Lanvin:
Leave it to Lanvin to let loose black gloves and intriguing silhouettes down the runway. With dresses and coats in beige, black, and white, the designer remembers the excitement of color with the occasional spark of red.
Proenza Schouler:
Though many designers stuck to inspiration of the past for Fall ‘09, Proenza Schouler kept it modern for the runway. High necks and fitted coats were all a part of the designers vision for the season.
Alexandre Herchcovitch:
Alexandre Herchcovitch was all about the idea of chaos for his fall ‘09 collection. Taking inspiration from big cities, multi-textured coats and printed dresses marched down the runway.
THE INDIE TEAM
A. F. Vandevorst:
For Fall ‘09 A.F. Vandevorst dreamt-up silk dresses and fur vests colored in quite a specific scheme. With trenches in variations of beige, green, and black it’s clear that this collection was one of a kind.
ADAM:
Releasing an array of colorful styles, ADAM put forth bright, upbeat separates for Fall ‘09.
Erdem:
It was all about embroidery and intense color for Erdem’s Fall ‘09 collection; lace and satin worked together to create ensembles fit for the runway.
Haider Ackermann:
With flowy dresses under more fitted and architectural coats, Haider Ackermann found that perfect line to combine edge and sophistication.
Ann Demeulemeester:
Stiff black works combined with soft white dresses allowed Ann Demeulemeester to explore the importance of balance for Fall ‘09.
Rodarte:
Working with pale schemes, leathers, and silk-screened styles, Rodarte lead a flood of breathe-taking dresses and skirts down the catwalk.
Phi:
Zippers and sequins were among Phi’s best looks for the Fall ‘09 season. Edgy styles made it clear that the collection was really for the strong and independent woman.
Albino:
Focusing on geometric shapes and silk dresses, bronze, black, and even a few bright-colored numbers made a strong statement when they took the runway.

SPREAD UM: “Scorching Hot” 10 Magazine Summer 2009

10 Magazine usually produces some pretty killer spreads, but “Scorching Hot” is well, probably the hottest of them all. From the psychotic, stream of consciousness list on the first page to the angsty and eerie poses, I am loving this spread. I must admit, the Roberto Cavalli garments, covered in dirt, make them so much sexier, and for the first time in my life, I think Marina Perez makes smoking look cool. Ugh, this makes me want to dress in high fashion, induce lung cancer and roll around in the dirt.

The Bashed: Ed Hardy Wine
Kirby Marzec, Managing Editor May 28 at 11:14
Read More:Christian Audigier, Ed Hardy, roberto cavalli
Really? Is this Christian Audigier’s new ploy for boosting sales? Getting people drunk on guido armpit scented Ed Hardy wine so they buy more repulsive tees, hoodies and shoes? Roberto Cavalli Vodka is one thing, because hey, he’s actually a legitamate designer and you look classy as hell drinking designer booze. But Ed Hardy? I’m sorry, that’s just pathetic.
Thanks BuzzFeed!
Chanel Attempts to Make Segway Look Cool. Fails.
Daniel Saynt, Editor-In-Chief May 20 at 4:55
Read More:Chanel, roberto cavalli, segway, Segway PT
I’m assuming they got paid serious dough to make this eyesore. Just reminds me of Gob in Arrested Development and this obese dude I always see zipping around on Broadway everyday. If they seriously wanted to sell Segway’s they should just hire really hot models to zip around on them around Manhattan. Once the hotties do it, everyone will. Giving them to Roberto Cavali and letting Karl redesign one doesn’t get you brownie points. FAIL. Total and absolute FAIL.

I Don’t Care Who You Are, Segways Are NOT Cool

Read More:cannes, Chanel, roberto cavalli, segway
Okay, I know that Chanel designed a Segway, trying to make this ridiculous “vehicle” (if it can even be called that?) chic, but really? Roberto Cavallia was spotted riding one at Cannes…are you a mall cop? I don’t care who you are, Segways never were, and never will be cool. What’s next, models riding down the runway on these things? Please, no.

SPREAD UM: “F For Furry” For 10 Magazine May 2009

PETA might not be a fan of 10 Magazine’s most recent spread, “F For Furry,” but I’m all about the natural cityscape, seemingly amateur spread shot by Marcelo Krasilcic. Model Valeria Dmitrienko is dressed to the nines in immaculate fur pieces from designers Gareth Pugh, Roberto Cavalli, Todd Lynn, Antonio Berardi, Versace and Jean Paul Gaultier. From the looks of the wet, Parisian cobblestone streets, the editorial probably saw a bit of rain (unless it was staged) but heck girl, you better not have rocked those pelts in the rain!

The Navajo look is beginning to grace the runways in preparation for Fall ‘09. Jackets from April77 and Rogues Gallery bring in the comfort in cool jackets, and Roberto Cavalli shows off Native American-inspired pants.

Too Cute At Coachella
Kirby Marzec, Managing Editor April 21 at 3:32
Read More:Chie Mihara, Coachella, Raquel Allegra, roberto cavalli
Coachella [noun] Co-chell-a: A three-day concert event in Indio, California where one will undoubtedly sweat profusely, pass out in the grass from heat exhaustion, have beer spilled upon oneself, be pushed and shoved by thousands or other spectators and most likely bleed from crowd surfers and/or broken beer bottles. That being said, who on earth would wear the best of the best designer gear to such an event? As a huge concert-goer (pretty psyched about the Lollapalooza 2009 lineup!) I often wonder what I’m going to wear…or not wear. However, a Roberto Cavalli romper and a Raquel Allegra top were definitely not on my list of things to sport at a show. After Lollapalooza 2008, I came home with ruined gladiators, a broken pair of sunglasses, grass stains on my cut offs and unidentified splotches on my sundress. So, tell me, why one earth would you wear some $800 silk chiffon garb to Coachella? By all means, look cute…but save the designer stuff for a classy, sit-down event.
Thanks Elle!
