Roberto Cavalli creative director Fausto Puglisi has been a decades-long admirer of LeSportsac. “When I connected with LeSportsac, I wanted to use the collaboration as a way to think about a Cavalli way to carry something on the subway in New York or to Coachella or to Burning Man,” he says. “Ultimately, we created something democratic, easy and young.”
Roberto Cavalli is known for their bold use of animal prints, highlighted in the March 11 drop. The first is the black and white Mini Zebra, a Cavalli staple. Next, the Puglisi-created Freedom Rum print mirrors tiger stripes and the history of Japanese etchings, reimagined in desert hues.

The next category, Matelassé, is a monochromatic emulation of zebra print through a detailed stitching technique on puffy material. Finally, Puffy Nero is an all-black fabric with a puffed filling. Each style is finished with edgy silver hardware.

Of the partnership, LeSportsac creative director Luca Schmitz adds, “It’s not a one-off — this is a real collaboration where two brands re-tell their story in a well-crafted, thoughtful way. What impressed me about working with Fausto specifically was his ability to translate Cavalli’s DNA for a younger audience. As 2024 marked our 50th anniversary, I can think of no better foundation than this collaboration to carry LeSportsac into the future.”
