The [Roberto Cavalli](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roberto-cavalli-uomo-verde-assoluto) AW 2010 shoes fall directly in line with the designer’s love for sexy silhouettes and animal print, with many a strappy shoe strutting down
his runway this season.

Made of [snakeskin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/total-90-iii-2), leather, leopard print fur or just fluffy nude animal fur, the Roberto Cavalli AW 2010 shoes bring on the glamor and up the oomph factor. The irregular lace-ups and cut-out detail set these shoes apart.
