Roberto Cavalli

Roberto Cavalli was born November, 15 1940 in Florence, Italy. He went to Florence Academy of the Art. His first job in the fashion industry was as a textile printer. He was recognized due to his prints. He figured out how to print on leather and people were very amused by it. He experimented with jeans and made the sand blasted jean which did good when he debuted it. He also worked on making stretch jeans. He liked working on jeans as well not just on gowns. Now his brand is still as successful as it was before.
