Roberto Cavalli Sunglasses – Wildness in Every Pair

History of Roberto Cavalli is one of the most remarkable brand stories of all times. While being very creative, innovative and persistent it took the designer over 30 years to raise among leading designers of the world. What today wows the fashion critics – bright colors, new types of fabrics, print coloring has not always been regarded as high fashion. But the more Roberto was criticized the more he dug his head into perfecting his ideas and taking them to the next level. Cavalli was first to draw design ideas directly from wild animals and birds. He was the first to use leather as a fabric for dresses, so to say innerwear as oppose to outerwear. He was the first to do engravings on leather fabric creating patterns on this commonly plain coloured material.

The success came only in late 1990s. Just few years ago Roberto Cavalli launched a line of sunglasses followed by ophthalmic frames. His collection of eyewear today carries his style characteristics in the most pronounced way. Cavalli glasses don’t have a huge logo on the side, the brand name is humbly engraved on the top or the lens (which actually looks really cool!). But you don’t need to worry. You don’t need that to let the world know you are wearing Cavalli glasses. They will be recognized due to excellent use of his signature animal elements, coloring and glamorous shapes. Roberto Cavalli glasses will make your fashion statement.

Here are some models from the current 2011 collection.
