Roberto Cavalli for H&M

Yup! You read that right! Here's the full report from Dolly Jones of Vogue UK:

FANCY yourself as a Cavalli babe next winter – for next to nothing? The Italian designer most famous for dressing Gwyneth, Madonna, Beyoncé and Jennifer Lopez is next up to design a one-off collection for H&M – following sell-out-in-seconds collections from Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney and Viktor & Rolf. "Roberto Cavalli has created a world of his own, iconic and full of fantasy, when it comes to colours, prints, and style," says H&M creative director, Margareta van der Bosch. "There is no place for shyness and no possibility of ending up with a mainstream wardrobe of everyday basics. The Roberto Cavalli collections represent an exuberant, successful lifestyle." Cavalli, whose collections include Just Cavalli for his younger fans, the Class Cavalli diffusion line and the Angels and Devils childrenswear line, will create 20 menswear pieces and 25 womenswear pieces as well as lingerie and accessories that will be unveiled in 200 H&M stores worldwide on November 8. "As the first Italian designer in the history of H&M, I enthusiastically welcomed this invitation," he said this morning. "Proud to bring the lively and positive spirit of my work to a new audience, who will be able to see and interpret my style in an individual way. I love freedom and challenges: breaking down barriers, experimenting in different directions. H&M is all this for me. I will add a dash of festivity and dreams." (June 20 2007, AM)
