STORY: Sculpted leather jackets contrasted with lightweight silk robes dominates Roberto Cavalli's show in Milan. Cocktail dresses emphasized craftsmanship with their intricate embroideries and were as thin as lingerie. Skirts flowed freely to cover the legs, confirming a wearable fashion trend seen on the Milan catwalks this week. Some dresses were trimmed with fluorescent green fabric to add a contemporary touch to the ethereal collection. The Florentine designer, known for making his own prints, mixed his famous animalier patterns with deco motifs.
