NEW KIDS: Roberto Cavalli has inked a childrenswear licensing deal for six seasons.
The brand has signed a partnership with the Italian fashion group Arav for the production and distribution of the Roberto Cavalli Junior and Just Cavalli Junior collections. The deal is intended to enhance the brand’s presence in the childrenswear market and the first produced and distributed by Arav will be for the spring 2026 season.
Most recently, the brands were licensed to Italian manufacturer Gimel, a deal which was signed in 2017.
Both lines will remain under the creative direction of the brand, while Arav will manage production and distribution through the Cavalli flagships and a selective network of premium retailers such as Harrods in London, Galeries Lafayette in Doha and e-commerce platforms such as LuisaViaRoma, Mytheresa and Farfetch.
The Roberto Cavalli Junior line — which includes newborn, baby and junior segments — features floral and animalier prints, including the signature Cavalli cheetah print, embroideries, and light fabrics. Also, there are mixed silk chiffon dresses and rhinestone-embellished denim for girls and tuxedos, oversized bombers and nylon cargo pants for boys.
Styles of the Just Cavalli Junior collection, which is designed for boys and girls ages 4 to 14, include animalier motifs, bold graphics, vivid colors, and statement logos.
The Arav Group portfolio comprises brands that include apparel and accessories for men, women, and children including John Richmond, Silvian Heach, Marco Bologna, as well as licenses for Trussardi Junior.
