The show opened up with a stunning film project that aimed to present the emotion behind the collection. A man wakes up lying on a warm desert road. He has only a calf skin doctors bag and a pair of fitted trousers. Confused and disoriented by the deep panorama that portrays miles of stretching desert all around him. He climbs to a peak and unleashes a furious roar. Releasing all the emotions that he couldn't express. Uncertain of his situation; he wonders, looking for answers. His imagination burns around him. Leaving him with more and more to ponder. He dreams. He looks for himself . He understands himself and he now knows where he must go and what he must do. The sound of the dry, desert road 'crunching' beneath his Cavalli boots, concludes the story and begins the show.
Well? What did you think?
Yeah I know!
You can pick your jaw off of the floor now!
I felt the EXACT same way after experiencing this pure, pleasurable, eye candy of a show!
So... Lets recap what we just witnessed from the Fall-Winter 2014-15 collection.
A black, symmetrical cut overcoat walks out first, which warns the viewers that this is going to be an exciting show. It is followed by a more casual look, made up of loose fitted trousers and a ruffled turtleneck sweatshirt with pattern studded, leather sleeves. On down to look number 6, we see a miniature chevron printed driving coat with contrasting shawl lapel that is layered with a grey tone, dyed scarf. Look number 11 features a raw cut leather trench coat, lined with pale sheep's wool. By this point we have seen a collection that is mainly comprised of formal silhouettes twisted with urban prints. If raw cut fabrics mixed with asymmetrical lines isn't enough, just wait. There's more. Look number 13 pulls off a street chic styling while maintaining a tailored look. Its followed by 6 more urban inspired, formal edited silhouettes. From this point we start seeing Nordic inspired prints and radical colors combined with sharp forming shapes. Detailed trousers, oversized scarves, blocked jackets, and long coats are also continued into this part of the collection. Just as the music changes and the lights dim, the show moves into its gala and evening wear pieces. The collection is wrapped up with a hand dyed, multicolored fur coat that swayed and folded with every step. The models take their final walk down the city street inspired runway. Mr. Cavalli casually walks, with his assistant, past the audience giving a few slight waves. Then the lights gradually fade away, closing the magnificent show!
