It was recently revealed that the legendary Roberto Cavalli passed away at age 83 on April 12 at home in Florence, Italy. He had been retired for some time, selecting his successor Peter Dundas back in 2015. (Although Dundas only lasted three seasons.) But the fashion house that Cavalli built is still going strong under the direction of Fausto Puglisi.

While Puglisi's Cavalli is doing well and has its fair share of celebrity enthusiasts, Cavalli's original designs are being kept alive as many celebs have stocked their already impressive closets with vintage Cavalli treasures. Which is certainly not surprising. After all, Cavalli's creations are the epitome of sexy, frequently boasting all kinds of fierce animal prints, from leopards to tigers and even crocodiles.
