The Italian designer began his career in the 1970s, creating floral prints and leather patchwork that garnered attention from high-end brands like Hermès and Pierre Cardin. He sent his first namesake collection down the runway in Paris and opened his first boutique in Saint-Tropez, St. Barth, and Venice. He eventually developed a youth-focused line, Just Cavalli, to cater to the younger generation.
Cavalli has made a lasting impact on the fashion industry, dressing the best of the best in Hollywood and beyond. One of his most notable moments was Aaliyah’s timeless yellow and black striped dress.
