Fashion Radar: Roberto Cavalli for H&M

In the oversexed world of fashion, one designer stands out as the real deal when it comes to understanding and delivering unabashed sex-appeal: Roberto Cavalli. The Hollywood set has embraced his wild and glamorous styles for years, and now we can get a piece of the action, too, because Cavalli is the next designer slated to create a collection for H&M!

The "Roberto Cavalli for H&M" collection will be available in some 200 H&M stores worldwide for a limited period beginning on November 8th, and will consist of 20 pieces of menswear and 25 of womenswear, including lingerie and matching accessories.

“I love freedom and challenges—breaking down barriers, experimenting in different directions," the Italian designer says of the collaboration. "H&M is all this for me. I will add a dash of festivity and dreams.”

We're hoping Cavalli's wallet-friendly designs will add not only a dash of "festivity and dreams" but also a sprinkle of sensuality and a pinch of animal prints…his trademark use of leather, feathers and the like would turn on us, too.

OK, maybe not feathers—but we expect nothing less than clothes that rock!

Hooray for H&M for getting somebody exciting, as opposed to Ms. past-her-best-by-date Madonna who, if I were to guess, had absolutely NO input into her capital B for boring collection.

Cavalli loves American women (as he proudly noted as he marched in the Columbus Day parade in NYC after 9/11) and loves designing for them.
We'll accept that.

And, by the way, leopard NEVER goes out of style. It's my favorite 'neutral'! he he he
