For Spring/Summer 2025, Roberto Cavalli‘s bold style is combining with the lightweight, durable materials of US accessories specialist LeSportsac. The results are four new lines inspired by Roberto Cavalli‘s iconic design style, reinterpreting a range of classic and new LeSportsac products.
Roberto Cavalli and LeSportsac have teamed up for a collaboration
The Mini Zebra line exemplifies Roberto Cavalli’s signature wild spirit; Freedom Run, designed by the Italian luxury label’s creative director Fausto Puglisi, is inspired by tiger stripes and traditional Japanese engravings, reinterpreted in hot desert hues; Matelassé is inspired by Italian craftsmanship; while the Puffy series, available in Mini Zebra, Freedom Run and total black versions, is designed for a modern, dynamic clientèle. All four lines are made of high-quality, lightweight materials and feature zips with twin pullers, one with the LeSportsac logo, the other with Roberto Cavalli’s.
“When I connected with LeSportsac, I wanted to use the collaboration as a way to think about a ‘Cavalli way’ to carry something on the subway in New York, or to Coachella or Burning Man,” said Puglisi. “In the end, we created something democratic, easy and young,” he added.
“It’s not a one-off — this is a real collaboration where two brands re-tell their story in a well-crafted, thoughtful way,” said Luca Schmitz, creative director at LeSportsac. “What impressed me about working with Fausto was his ability to translate Cavalli’s DNA for a younger audience. As 2024 marked our 50th anniversary, I can think of no better foundation than this collaboration to carry LeSportsac into the future,” concluded Schmitz.
The new lines are available from March 11 at Neiman Marcus department stores, at LeSportsac and Roberto Cavalli stores, and on the brands’ e-shops.
