Curator's Note

Roberto Cavalli's Autumn/Winter 2004 ready-to-wear collection was presented in Milan in February 2004. The collection took inspiration from the rich fabrics of sixteenth-century Venice, the wardrobe of Empress Elisabeth of Austria and eighteenth-century European dress. The runway was decorated with gilded brocade, sculpted elephants and a four-poster bed covered in spotted fur. Elaborate embroidery featured throughout the collection, particularly on coats and jackets.

Hamish Bowles, reviewing the show for Vogue, noted the influence of eighteenth-century men's coats on Cavalli's jewel-encrusted shearling designs. This tan sheepskin coat appeared as Look 3 on the runway.It is covered in multicoloured crystals and beads, which form floral patterns across the sleeves, pockets and back. The coat is an example of the collection's historical references and its extensive use of embroidery on leather and fur.

Roberto Cavalli

Roberto Cavalli founded his eponymous house in Paris in 1970, presenting his debut collection at the Salon du Prêt-à-Porter. The house was built on a technique Cavalli had developed and patented for printing directly onto leather and suede, work that had already drawn commissions from Hermès and Pierre Cardin before he launched under his own name. In 1972 he showed a women's collection in the Sala Bianca of the Palazzo Pitti in Florence, alongside Missoni, Krizia and Fendi, and opened his first boutique, Limbo, in Saint-Tropez the same year. These were the foundations of the house codes he would develop throughout the 1970s and 80s: animal prints, patchworked leather and suede, sand-blasted and embellished denim, and pleated silk in bold colour. Eva Düringer, whom he married in 1980, became his principal collaborator and later took on the role of creative director within the house.
