Roberto Cavalli at H&M

With this year's designer collaboration H&M opens its doors to the exclusive world of Roberto Cavalli.

The Italian designer will create a one-off collection for women and men exclusively for H&M.

The line will carry the vital touch and the intense sensuality typical of Roberto Cavalli, one of the world's most exciting and creative fashion designers.

"Roberto Cavalli has created a world of his own, iconic and full of fantasy, when it comes to colours, prints, and style.

There is no place for shyness and no possibility of ending up with a mainstream wardrobe of everyday basics.

The Roberto Cavalli collections represents an exuberant, successful lifestyle," says Margareta van den Bosch.

"As the first Italian designer in the history of H&M, I enthusiastically welcomed this invitation, 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," explains Roberto Cavalli.
