Roberto Cavalli brand – discover the exotic glamour of Florence

Roberto Cavalli was born in Florence, a beautiful town of the Italian region of Tuscany. His grandfather, Giuseppe Rossi, was a famous Italian painter of the Macchiaio movement, and the reason why Roberto Cavali developed an interest in art in the first place.

That interest enrolled him in the local Art Institute and the department of textile print and applications. While studying at the Institute, he discovered his love for fashion that became an obsession.

At the time, he was already locally famous for its unique flower prints that attracted major hosiery factories. One of his first interventions was a special printing procedure on leather when he started creating and using patchworks of various fine materials.
