Roberto Cavalli, the Italian fashion designer who made his mark on the fashion world with distinctive, glamorous animal prints, has died at the age of 83. His eponymous brand confirmed the news in a statement shared on social media Friday afternoon, highlighting Cavalli’s “life lived with love.
” “Roberto Cavalli’s legacy will live on via his creativity,” the statement continued, “his love of nature and via his family who he cherished.” Cavalli was born in Florence in 1940. His grandfather, Giuseppe Rossi, was a renowned painter; Cavalli followed in his footsteps by enrolling at Florence’s Academy of Art, where he started experimenting with painting, patchwork and textiles.
Along with animal prints and intarsia leather, denim became a core element of his signature style, leading to the establishment of a more youthful offshoot brand, Just Cavalli, in 1998. At an Oxford University talk in 2013, Cavalli explained his passion for wild animal patterns, which he used on everything from denim to red carpet gowns: “I love nature. Animals have the best dresses. God made them so well-dressed. Women like these designs, they feel natural in them,” he said.
