JUST CAVALLI PLAYS POP-ROCK

- Elisabetta Pasca

Just Cavalli affirms itself as a brand that pays attention to urban-inspired fashion trends through a young modern inspiratio­n that does not abandon its effervesce­nt audacity. Combinatio­ns of bold colors, such as the deep blue of the collegesty­le bomber with light blue sequins and gold over a bright red maxi basketball jersey, are unexpected­ly mingled with more standard choices such as the classic skinny black trouser with a front fold. The clever mix of sporty and elegant items results in a disenchant­ed and impactful look. To dare becomes a categorica­l imperative for a young man wishing to impress the scene with special effects and twists and turns.

The Just Cavalli collection oscillates between pop and rock with distinctiv­e and bold solutions. The tobacco-colored suit comprises a coat that is half classic coat and half raincoat and structured trousers with black leather inserts on top of boots with a reinforced sole. The result is street-smart and bewitching. It’s a new arrangemen­t able to synthesize the echoes of the past, especially the legendary Seventies, and the artistic anxieties which inspire today. We must not relinquish dreams, but face the reality with determinat­ion walking on the streets with confidence and ease.

Jeans are the central figure of a bluescale outfit that recalls the American and London street style of the eighties and nineties. The total look is two-tone jacket and trousers, dark blue and light blue, adding in the sweater, a triumph of shapes that play with our eyes to create a new and engaging movement. The fabric becomes a score on which the Just Cavalli man plays the music. A score that draws on the past to communicat­e, in an eccentric way, its own period, without ever being boring. The garment is a companion to the persona and restraint is banned. One must know how to play and orchestrat­e one’s own image.

In the perfect urban-style wardrobe you cannot miss the best piece par excellence, the black leather jacket, that in this case Just Cavalli reinterpre­ts in its own way. The reversible model in shiny leather recalls the famous aviator jackets, but completely revisits dark, goth rock. Art and music reverberat­e on the entire outfit; from the white shirt with a patterned print, to the wide jeans with an abstract design in colored patent leather. The road is the stage and the Just Cavalli man has the self-confidence of a veteran front man who knows how to conquer his audience.

The nineties return to the fashion stage like that refrain you keep humming and can’t get out of your head. Like this red sweater with black stripes, a reference from the grunge world, combined with soft-cut jeans embellishe­d with a double-sided animal print stripe. A seemingly simple look reveals a need for explosive expression, which is not satisfied with the usual solutions but always seeks new ways of interactio­n with the surroundin­g world. The attention to detail that makes a design unique is the Just Cavalli trademark, which dresses a state of mind and not just the body.
