The wildest 70s to rediscover Cavalli’s feline and nature fantasies: the fall/winter 2023-2024 collection

Patchwork denim, animal prints, sheepskin and fur-effect looks: according to Cavalli, the 2000s are back, relived by Fausto Puglisi

The autumn/winter 2023-2024 staged at Milan Fashion Week focused on the body, to be shown with courage, confidence and ease even in the coldest season of the year: a requirement that on the Cavalli by Fausto Puglisi catwalk it translates into eroticism, freedom, a return to the pristine and desert beauty of the American South West , in that nature that since 1970 Cavalli has made its trademark. The creative director thus draws on the archives in an original way, enhancing all the sensual material but reinterpreting the Y2K trends in the light of the present.

Roberto Cavalli, the autumn/winter 2023-2024: the inspirations of Fausto Puglisi

The dress code is the well-known one of Roberto Cavalli, the one perhaps set aside for a while just that little bit to trace a new direction but without abandoning the present in any way: so alongside Y2K patterns and textures there is the dominant inspiration , that of the American South-West and of Georgia O'Keeffe, American painter icon of the 20th century who made nature, between abstraction and reality, her greatest inspiration.

The stylist's invitation seems to be to tell us about a cold winter outside but not inside: there is a desire to live, to take back the opportunities and opportunities lost over the last few years, perhaps postponed, to fall in love again. It plays with transparencies that are embellished with meticulous velvet and slightly glitter stripes, in sexy mini dresses , bold but with a refined elegance dialogued between velvet, lace and floral embroidery . Mini dresses that are also made up entirely of Comanche-inspired jewels, enhancing the beauty of bijoux with stones .

Long fur sheepskin coats, patchwork denim, animalier and black lace dresses: the must-haves for next winter in 70's style

There is something wild but also rock'n'roll in Cavalli's autumn/winter 2023-2024 collection, which once again brings the 70s back into fashion: flared trousers and jeans will still be the must-have models of the season wear with long sheepskin coats with fur details, but also with brown fur coats to match with vibrant shades like fuchsia.

Not only animalier , among the patterns that we will also love patchwork , especially in the denim version but also in velvet, a fabric that will once again dominate the winter scene from head to toe. Denim also reveals, as already happened with Diesel, its sexiest soul in openly asymmetrical evening dresses with a wild and sensual allure.

At the appeal of the sexiest dresses to have absolutely in next winter's wardrobe, even at Cavalli black transparent lace dominates the scene, in a rich texture with a gothic and romantic taste, also enriched with fringes and feathers , in an elegance boho chic taste.
