W Magazinereports that Roberto Cavalli has launched a new clothing line, Roberto Cavalli Pets. The collection - which includes satin-trimmed doggy bathrobes and velour tracksuits - is designed for small and medium-size dogs. Roberto's wife Eva told W that they love animals and they wanted to bring their style to the canine world.
"Roberto and I have always loved animals; we have so many of them around the house," Eva said. "It came as a natural conclusion, therefore, to bring a bit of our style to the canine universe."
True to Cavalli, the collection-designed for small and medium-size dogs-offers such extravagances as satin-trimmed bathrobes, printed silk shorts, velour tracksuits, and puffer and shearling jackets. Accessories include quilted dog carriers and patent-leather collars and leashes. "Who doesn't love dogs?" Eva said. "They're reliable, faithful and caring. I could not imagine my house without them or our other animals. They're true members of the family."
W Magazine has more photos of the pet outfits here. There should be a special runway show for Cavalli's pet outfits.
