For S/S 2013, Mulberry‘s original Del Rey inspired by singer Lana Del Rey comes in new finishes, including Milk Chocolate Heavy Suede and Nude Silky Snake Print Leather, as well as two luxurious statement options: Slate Blue Ostrich and textured Giraffe Haircalf.
But the most exciting news is that the iconic bag gets a little sister.
Meet the newest Mulberry miniature – the SMALL DEL REY.
The Del Rey is a modern Mulberry classic that combines retro American glamour with common-sense English practicality to create a bag with understated elegance and timeless appeal. For S/S 2013 a Small Del Rey is introduced, shrinking the proportions of the original and adding a versatile cross-body strap for multi-wear options.
Have a look at those new must-haves bag to hit the shelves very soon:
Small Del Rey in Black Grainy Print Leather
Small Del Rey in Deer Brown Grainy Print Leather
Small Del Rey in Milk Chocolate Heavy Suede
Small Del Rey in Slate Blue Grainy Print Leather
British actress Helena Bonham Carter carried the Small Del Rey to the Mulberry-sponsored launch of Tim Walker’s new exhibition at Somerset House last month.

Daniele Cavalli‘s reign at his family label has elevated the iconic style to another, more contemporary and definitely sexier level. The young Florentine is in charge for the house’s menswear label since a few seasons and I am absolutely in love wit his creations. In my dream world, men would walk around in those clothes from day to night.
Young Daniele has an amazing sense for colours and for creating new interesting materials, as he transformed tiger stripes into a tonal motif on a black leather bomber jacket for F/W 2012. The purple duffle coat and croc print silk scarf would take every man’s outfit to new heights.
You can shop Roberto Cavalli Men at LUISAVIAROMA.COM and FARFETCH.COM.
Me with Daniele, whom, it would not be hard to imagine in many of the looks.

Beautiful black & white photo in the last issue of Italian Max featuring a Roberto Cavalli Menswear S/S 2012 total look! Great style!

This is a photo of the Roberto Cavalli F/W 2012 Menswear advertising campaign.
For S/S 2013, Daniele got inspired by the butterfly, the icon of transformation, and used a cage filled with them as the backdrop of show. From caterpillar to cocoon to full glam rock chic, if you’re going to be in Roberto Cavalli’s gang next summer, you will need some pastel shades of lilac and sky blue. To add Daniele’s signature ’70s feel, go for his metallic purples and silver. The thin lapelled-suits with neck scarves should definitely be on your wish list, gentlemen!
