The Roberto Cavalli Fall 2013 collection was an essential part of this year's Milan Fashion Week. The line introduced a series of upscale looks that worked with a variety of couture themes, none of which could have been predicted by Italy's audience members.
Displayed along this 2013 Milan Fashion Week catwalk were regal cuts. This royalty motif was teased out as transparent gowns trailed behind the models, as did the sheets of fur that lined its Fall 2013 outerwear pieces. Edgy kaleidoscope patterns and prints accorded the items with a tribal feel in spite of these monarchical motifs, enabling the upscale Roberto Cavalli brand to get down to its most essential and particularly primal roots.
