QUOTABLE: Roberto Cavalli Is Bigger Than A Rock Star…or just full of himself

Roberto Cavalli

Roberto Cavalli

“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.

Roberto Cavalli A/W 2009 fashion

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…

SPREAD UM: “Scorching Hot” 10 Magazine Summer 2009

SPREAD UM: Scorching Hot 10 Magazine Summer 2009  fashion

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  fashion

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.

Chanel Attempts to Make Segway Look Cool. Fails.

Chanel Attempts to Make Segway Look Cool. Fails. fashion

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

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

SPREAD UM: F For Furry For 10 Magazine May 2009 fashionPETA 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!

Too Cute At Coachella

Too Cute At Coachella  fashionToo Cute At Coachella  fashionCoachella [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!

BEHIND THE BEAUTY: S/S 09 Trends

This season, it’s all about the skin, glowing skin. All of the catwalk makeup looks had a clash of bold colors vs neutral nudes. I picked two makeup looks from the runway that I like. With so many great looks, from the red pout to the All-American peachy glow, let me know which makeup style works best for you.

NUDE

Brown shadows are worked around the eye with curled, mascara-free lashes and cheekbones are highlighted with pinky taupe blusher. A dash of shimmer across the cupid’s bow and don’t forget the neat brows.

GLOW

Suitable for all skin tones, this look gets you glowing with blushers, eye shadows and lipsticks in varying peachy hues for a sculpted, sun kissed look.

PASTELS

Pale green, pink and lilac shadows give an almost futuristic appeal. In some cases eyes, lips, and cheeks were accentuated.

SPREAD UM: “Fashion Bailout” Vogue Italia April 2009

SPREAD UM: Fashion Bailout Vogue Italia April 2009 fashion

Steven Meisel’s editorial for Vogue Italia April 2009 is basically the greatest game of dress-up you could ever imagine. Poking fun at our current economic crisis, “Fashion Bailout” portrays some intense mixing, matching and accessorizing at what appears to be a second hand store. While the clothes on Darya, Portia & Eliza are a mish-mosh of Moschino, Maison Martin Margiela, Roberto Cavalli and others, this spread suggests that you can look just as couture wearing Goodwill finds. But to be honest, I would have pegged this spread the brainchild of Carine Roitfeld over Franca Sozzani.

There are so……many great bags out this season that I sometimes actually feel a lightheaded when looking at them. I personally prefer a little, or should I say, ALOT of detail on my bags of choice. The focus is on clutch bags today and Here are just a few of my favorites. From top to bottom the designers are, Sonia Rykiel python clutch….Roberto Cavalli snakeskin and diamante clutch (EXQUISITE)….Roberto Cavalli black jeweled clutch….Proenza Schouler Pochette’s x 2….Missoni Snakeskin clutch….Matthew Williamson python Pochette….Judith Leiber x 2 (love the cupcake)….Dries Van Noten x 2….Bulgari….Alexander McQueen x 2 (love, love, love the fringe clutch). The “jeweled daisy” clutch has a beautiful vintage look and is a sure favorite. Enjoy the view!

Roberto Cavalli Launches Dog Wear “Roberto Cavalli Pets” fashion

Roberto Cavalli  is set to expand his fashion empire with a collection of pooch couture, which will include satin-trimmed doggy bathrobes, printed silk shorts, shearling jackets, and velour tracksuits designed for small and medium-size dogs.

“Roberto and I have always loved animals; we have so many of them around the house,” wife Eva Cavalli said in a recent interview with W Magazine. “It came as a natural conclusion, therefore, to bring a bit of our style to the canine universe.”

Eva says she and her hubby love animals and wanted to bring their signature sense style to the canine world.

“Who doesn’t love dogs? They’re reliable, faithful and caring. I could not imagine my house without them or our other animals. They’re true members of the family.”

Accessories include quilted dog carriers and patent-leather collars and leashes. The Robert Cavalli Pets Line is priced from $110 for a t-shirt to $1,200 for a patent-leather quilted carrier.
