Gold's Gentle Roar by Roberto Cavalli for S/S 26, Milan Fashion Week | FashionTV | FTV

Ignite your boldest desires with Roberto Cavalli's spring/summer 2026 collection, where golden audacity whispers timeless seduction! Roberto Cavalli's S/S 26 show dazzled Milan Fashion Week on September 25, 2025, at a gilded venue in the city's fashion epicenter, transforming the runway into a river of molten luxury under the bold vision of Creative Director Fausto Puglisi, who has revitalized the house since 2023 with his Sicilian-rooted flair for opulent drama. Puglisi's inspiration for the collection, dubbed "Gold Obsession", channels the regal extravagance of Elizabeth Taylor's Cleopatra, fused with Jane Birkin's barefoot Bohemian abandon, a monochromatic ode to gold as both material and metaphor—precious, bold, yet touched with gentle sensuality. "Gold can be over-the-top, but I wanted it strong with a soft hand," Puglisi reflected, swapping the house's vibrant prints for a glittering sea of lame-treated denim, fluid gowns that caught the light like sun on St. Tropez waves, and sheer T-shirt dresses embroidered with delicate webs that skimmed the body in low-waist bell bottoms evoking Birkin's free-spirited sway. Corseted slips with foil accents and shorter, less formal silhouettes added playful rebellion, all within a unified palette of shimmering metallics that defied caution, creating a wardrobe for the woman who commands with quiet ferocity.
