ROBERTO CAVALLI AT H&M - THE FASHION PARTY HAS STARTED

The unique “Roberto Cavalli at H&M” collection made by the Italian fashion
legend in collaboration with H&M was presented to the international press at a
gloriously glamorous gala event in Rome's Salone delle Fontane last night.
Roberto Cavalli made grande entrée on a red carpet catwalk with a trail of
models wearing his luxurious party collection. Stars from the music- and movie
business, as well as fashionistas came to celebrate with the designer in Italian
rock'n roll style.

“Roberto Cavalli is one of my personal favourites. His clothes are sexy, and he
is always on the edge and changes before other designers. I think the
collaboration with H&M is great because now all women can wear his designs”,
says Halle Berry.

The Roberto Cavalli party was staged like a gigantic VIP lounge where, among
others, Sharon Stone and Halle Berry were spotted in the crowd. The ambience was
heated up with the noise of a helicopter and cars, paparazzi flashes and the
appearance of the Italian fashion legend together with his wife Eva, followed by
models wearing the “Roberto Cavalli at H&M” collection, sweeping down to the end
of the red carpet catwalk where he contently declared:

“This party for the launch of the Roberto Cavalli at H&M collection is truly
amazing! The atmosphere is electrifying, glamorous and full of positive and
young energy. It's a magical night that I will never forget”, says Roberto
Cavalli. 

“I think the collaboration with H&M is a great idea. The clothes look great and
the ads are beautiful. Roberto Cavalli is a wonderful designer who knows how to
make both chic and sexy”, says Sharon Stone.

Models Erin Wasson and Jessica Stam showed Roberto Cavalli's famous animal print
dresses made of silk chiffon, a fabulous red carpet dress made of pleated gold
lame, a mini sheath with sequins and pearls and shapely tuxedo style jackets and
trousers. Nicolas Malleville showed the men's range with sharply cut suits and
tuxedo separates, worn as a suit or with jeans, T-shirts and shirts de luxe. 

 “The collection is built around a selection of Roberto Cavalli's favourite
pieces throughout the years, of which many are made to wear on the red carpet.
But Cavalli's fashion is not only about the red carpet but foremost about a
positive and optimistic attitude. It's about enjoying the good things in life
with large dose of fashion glamour”, says H&M's head of design Margareta van den
Bosch.
