This Roberto Cavalli dress is from a more recent collection and it is the kind of dress that you slip on when you want to make a statement. It is an easy-to-wear dress and very flattering once on the body. The stretch jersey fabric and chic leopard print are the perfect combination. The lines are simple and it has that perfectly easy but sexy feel. You literally just slip this over your head and done. Once it is on, it moves with you and highlights your curves. The dress has a high neckline and long sleeves. Each sleeve widens out as it near it's end. You are fully covered at the front but then when you turn there is a large open cut out at the back for an expanse of bare skin to show. It skims over your waist and hips and then falls to the floor in a column of jersey. On one side of the skirt there is a high scooped out slit that allows almost the full leg to show as you walk or move. It is one of the dresses that you just slip into and walk out feeling like a million bucks. The leopard print acts like a neutral in many ways and you can pair just about any colour with this to change up the look of it. It is an amazing print that works on almost any skin tone. Very sexy on. Excellent condition

Unlined slips on to wear with no closures. Tagged a Cavalli 38. The fabric has stretch and the measurements below are the comfortable range of that stretch when it's laying flat. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.

No matter how good you think that this dress looks like in photos it is even better in person and moving. The heavy copper / gold coloured metal wire and rhinestones that were used to create the pattern on the silk catch the light from every angle when you move. The dress is made out of the palest ballet pink silk. The dress is cut on the bias so it just glides over the body. It buttons down the back in a row of tightly spaced silk covered buttons and it is cut to just fall over you in a sweep of bias cut silk. The dress is suspended from the shoulders by two tiny silk straps and the front falls over the bust with a V neck plunge at the front and the back. The dress skims over the waist and hips with seams that are reminiscent of the couture dresses of the thirties. All are done so that the bias cut of the silk follows your curves and highlights the body underneath without it being too tight and fitted. Once past the hips the dress flares out as it nears the bottom and it is incredibly full. A wide panel circles all the way around the lower skirt and there is stiffened netting placed behind it so that it holds the fullness around you. When you walk or move the skirt kicks out to add beautiful movement and volume. The final perfect detail is that spectacular design made out of a combination of metal wire in a deep copper gold tone. This is set so that it curves up and off the silk for a 3D effect. Prong set rhinestones are scattered in and among the designs on the bust and around the hips. These catch the light beautifully as you move. It is just wonderful. Over all great condition with a note below

Fully lined with a pale pink silk chiffon and closes with the buttons down the back. The measurements given below are the comfortable range when the dress is laying flat. The bias cut of the dress should work on a range of sizes. On smaller frames it will drape more and be more fitted on larger frames. The very slightest yellowing to the silk here and there and around the waist area in particular. You can see it in the photos presented and I would say the photos make it look worse than it is in real life. Tagged a Cavalli XS

Bust: 14-17.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: to 16" flat across from side seam to side seam

Here we have one of the most wanted pieces of vintage that you can find - one of Roberto Cavalli's iconic corsets. The ones from 2003 to 2005 seem to be the ones that everyone wants  the most and I love that I have this one in its coral and ivory print. Bella Hadid was recently spotted wearing a yellow one from this collection and versions were shown on the runway and for the ad campaign that season. I love how the print add a fantastic pop of colour and this coral print is especially fantastic. The corset has inner metal stays at the front where it hooks to close, down the sides, and on either side of the laces. These are encases in the same silk as the rest of the corset and I love how he set the pattern in a different direction where it goes over top of the inner boning. It gives it the perfect amount of emphasis to where the stays are placed. To wear it the corset, you hook it at the front and then you can adjust the laces at the back for the perfect fit. I love the way it is cut on a curve on both the top and the bottom so that it fits perfectly over you and creates that sexy hourglass shape. You can pop this over almost anything to add a little amazing bit of Cavalli sexiness. Excellent condition

Unlined and closes with the five metal hooks at the front and then you adjust the fit with the laces at the back. I see a touch of very minor wear to the fabric at the end of the stays here and there and there are two tiny areas that look like they added a couple of stitches along a seam. In addition to the Cavalli label there is a hand written tag inside.

Note that I have measured this one laying open from end with the laces tightened as you see it on the mannequin. It might be able to go down a touch more through the waist and you could open the laces as much as you needed.

Top seam: 25" flat across from end to end with the laces tightened to wear their it shown on the dress form. You can adjust upwards from there by loosening the laces as needed.
Waist: 22"flat across from end to end with the laces tightened to wear their it shown on the dress form. You can adjust upwards from there by loosening the laces as needed.
Bottom seam: 28.5" flat across from end to end with the laces tightened to wear their it shown on the dress form. You can adjust upwards from there by loosening the laces as needed.
Height: 10.25" at the laces, 11" at the hooks

I literally did the gasp when I saw this coat in person for the first time. Cavallie said at the time that the theme of this collection was "a modern fairy tale" and the pieces had a bit of a folky feel to them. The suedes were distressed, softened and made to look aged. The twin of this coat walked the runway for Look 5 and I love that we have reference photos from the runway and video so you can see how fantastic this on and it moves. Alek Wek is the model who walked in its twin and she was spectacular in it. This is a very special piece and one that was produced in extremely limited quantities and is an extremely rare thing to have acquired. On a modern note, none other than Beyonce just happen to have worn its twin, giving it full rock star royalty provenance. I am very pleased to have this in the shop. I feel like this is the best of the best of what Cavalli does and with a Beyonce stamp of approval it is that much better.

Even without the Beyonce provenance this is a killer coat. When my client purchased it, it was the only one being sold in the shop. These were made in extremely limited quantities and only available at very select locations. It is a very rare piece. The cut is fantastic. It has no collar and the front comes down into a V to the waist. There is a series of brass hooks that close it at the waist and then the skirt of the coat falls out around you. At the back the waist is brought in with a series of soft rounded vertical folds that extend above and below the waist area. This helps to give the volume that you see through the bottom of the coat and adds a stunning bit of detailing. The coat skims over the hips and widens as it nears the hem. Just below the knee there is an added panel of that same ultra soft suede. It is set over the suede above it so that it creates a little visual ruffle around its top and then it is gathered all the way around in soft folds to create that ruffle feel. The sleeves are long and each one ends in an eight inch cuff that picks up on that same silhouette as the lower skirting. The suede is a work of art in its own right. It is wonderfully soft and has been scuffed and aged so that it feels like something that existed for decades and decades. Florals have been cut out directly into the suede from top to bottom and this allows that amazing lining to show through. The lining is a combination of his signature leopard print with a coral pink painted feeling silk and you can see that lining through where all the cut outs are. The inside of this coat is almost as beautiful as the outside. They actually used cording to help support where they have gathered in the silk at the small of the back to create the rolls. The effect when you move and you see that flash of lining is fantastic and is the keystone to the entire design. The coat also comes with its original piped belt that you can wrap and tie around the waist for the perfect finishing detail. I can't rave enough about this coat. It is a literal work of art. Excellent condition with a small note below.

Fully lined in a printed silk that has the Cavalli signature worked into its pattern. Cording holds the back pleating in place and gives it structure. The suede is intentionally distressed and any marks on it, or on the silk, are there on purpose. The occasional edges of some of the suede flower detailing has lifted from the silk and again I believe this to be a purposeful part of the coat. I do see some minor stress to some of the silk on the inside seams. Please see the photo after the label shot. Tagged a Cavalli eight. Hand finishes

This Roberto Cavalli dress is from 2015 and it is beyond gorgeous. Its twin was worn by Naomi Campbell to Fashion for Relief where she walked the runway and I am happy to have some reference photos from the show so you can see how spectacular this dress is once on the body. It is exceptional and extremely beautiful.

The dress is made from a combination of black netting and silk chiffon. The entire bodice is made from the netting and then it has a layer of that spectacular bead work applied with a bit of silk chiffon behind the bead work so that it is opaque enough to wear. The parts that are not beaded have a touch of transparency to them and I love how this plays on the curves of the body. The bead work on the dress is amazing. Heavy applied gold tube beads, gold seed beads and gold sequins are set in swirling patterns across the bodice. As a pattern runs down over the waist and the hips the colours of the sequins gradually changed to a more muted gold and then to a silver. There are prong set glass crystals in gold and clear scattered in and among the pattern. The edge of the neck and arms are lined with silver tube beads and little silver sequins. All of these embellishments catch the light from every angle and I love the depth and 3D texture that it gives the piece. The skirt is remarkable. It is in its original uncut length and has a beautiful cut. When you are standing still you still get the feeling of fullness as it widens out to the hem but when you move the skirt has incredible movement around you. The fabric is so light and airy that when you walk it creates this incredible floating sensation. As good as it looks here it only really comes to life once on. Besides the cut this is further empathized by the addition of thousands of feathers. Each is attached around the hip area with either a sequin or a little prong set crystal and then they are applied directly to the silk chiffon under that. The feathers have incredible movement when you walk and I love how the back of the dress is cut longer than the front so you have a sweeping feel behind you. It is an incredibly beautiful dress and no matter how good it looks in the photos the sensation and tactile feeling of the fabric and lightness when you have it in hand is just phenomenal. It looks to have been worn very little if at all. Excellent condition.

The embellished parts of the halter are backed with a black silk so it is opaque and the skirt has an inner silk chiffon lining. It closes with a back hidden set zipper. The occcasional bead missing here and there. Tagged a Cavalli 38.

Waist: 12-13" flat across from side seam to side seam
