Sicilian designer Fausto Puglisi was appointed creative consultant in 2020 at the Roberto Cavalli brand, which is now owned by Vision Investments.

Vetements is a luxury French fashion house known for its bold prints, interesting color combinations, and designs that are made to be noticed. Founded in 2014 by Demna Gvasalia and Guram Gvasalia, it has become easy to spot a Vetements product, which is the appeal of the luxury fashion brand. Designer pieces are costly but also built to last, so that you can expect superb quality. Luxury fashion label, Robert Cavali, is the eponymous brand of famed Italian designer Robert Cavalli. Founded in 1972 in Florence, Italy, the label has become known for its bold prints, brightly colored garments, and leather accessories. These pieces have a youthful feel and are for those who prefer to stand out from the crowd rather than blend in. Designs include the tiger-inspired Felix print silk shirt or the equally daring zebra-print slim-fit jeans. Founded by Alfred Dunhill more than 120 years ago, this London designer brand has from a long day from its origins. Alfred inherited his father’s saddlery business, where he began developing leather car goods. Over the years, the family business entered into the luxury goods space, leading us to where it is today. It has become one of the industry’s oldest and largest top designer brands with menswear, leather goods, accessories, fragrances, and watches.In 2001 Thom Browne realized that there was a gap in the market for formal clothing because everyone had become overly casual in how they dressed. Therefore, the designer brand specializes in suits and formal wear, making even their casual clothing quite dressy. However, the most noteworthy thing about Thom Browne is that he loves playing with traditional proportions and creating clothes that are ‘shrunken,’ reconceptualizing the classic men’s suit while also accepting gender fluidity by dressing his male models in skirts, dresses, and heels.

Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel reimagined traditionally masculine garments for feminine shapes, and her elegant evening dresses and gowns promoted comfort and grace in women’s wear that had been dominated in the previous century by layers of fabric. French fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent introduced innovative and highly coveted dress designs in the 1960s while at the same time challenging sexist stereotypes about which members of society could wear tuxedos. Works by unconventional British designer John Galliano — featured in houses like Givenchy and Dior — redefined limits that dressmakers faced in terms of material, construction and vision during the late 20th century.Cavalli introduced melodious arias into his music and popular types into his libretti. His operas have a remarkably strong sense of dramatic effect as well as a great musical facility, and a grotesque humour which was characteristic of Italian opera down to the death of Alessandro Scarlatti. Cavalli's operas provide the only example of a continuous musical development of a single composer in a single genre from the early to the late 17th century in Venice — only a few operas by others (e.g., Monteverdi and Antonio Cesti) survive. The development is particularly interesting to scholars because opera was still quite a new medium when Cavalli began working, and had matured into a popular public spectacle by the end of his career. Established over a century ago by Hans Wilsdorf, Rolex pioneered watch innovation as we know it today. It was in 1926 when the Oyster, the world’s first waterproof wristwatch, took Rolex to new heights of fame. Since then, the designer brand has spread its reach across the globe, providing timepieces that are a testament to resilience. Rolex watches are designed for the extremes – capable of withstanding the rigors of deep-sea dives, soaring flights, and high-intensity races. Today, Rolex remains among the top luxury watch brands renowned for its style, innovation, and timelessness. It’s no surprise that the brand’s second-hand market is incredibly lucrative, with a Rolex being guaranteed to increase in value over time. Karl Lagerfeld’s contribution to the Fendi brand is perhaps best exemplified by his lightning-fast creation of the iconic “FF” Zucca logo. In just three seconds, Lagerfeld managed to infuse Fendi’s nearly century-old identity with a fresh and youthful energy. Of course, Lagerfeld’s lasting legacy at Fendi extends far beyond a simple logo redesign. From 1965 until his death in 2019, he served as the brand’s creative director, constantly pushing the boundaries of what the luxury label could achieve. While Kim Jones is now at the helm of Fendi, the brand’s bold and dramatic use of furs and leather remains a hallmark of the designer’s vision. Fendi stands alongside other legendary designer brands as a testament to Lagerfeld’s indelible influence on the fashion world. Rosand, Ellen, Opera in Seventeenth-Century Venice.

ISBN 0-486-28151-5 As a symbol of British punk and rebellion, Vivienne Westwood remains one of the most iconic top designer brands in modern fashion history. Launching a store in London called SEX, she paved the way for the punk subculture to enter the mainstream. Her pieces include ripped T-shirts, plaid, and sky-high platform heels – which supermodel Naomi Campbell famously wore (and fell) on the runway in 1993. A proud rebel of the industry, her pieces remain political and symbolic statements against conformists and defined an era of defiance against the norm. Francesco Cavalli (born Pietro Francesco Caletti-Bruni; 14 February 1602 – 14 January 1676) was a Venetian composer, organist and singer of the early Baroque period. He succeeded his teacher Claudio Monteverdi as the dominant and leading opera composer of the mid 17th-century. A central figure of Venetian musical life, Cavalli wrote more than forty operas, almost all of which premiered in the city's theaters. His best known works include Ormindo (1644), Giasone (1649) and La Calisto (1651).
