Roberto Cavalli announced today the appointment of Paul Surridge as Creative Director, with responsibility over all the group’s brands and for all creative functions.
Surridge’s first season will debut with the women’s Spring/Summer 2018 collection, which will be shown in Milan in September 2017.
Paul Surridge was born in England and graduated from London’s Central Saint Martins. He worked at Calvin Klein during the 90s and then joined Christopher Bailey at Burberry from 2003 to 2007. In 2007 he was appointed as Jil Sander’s Design Director Men under Raf Simons’ leadership.

“I am honored and proud to carry forward the legacy of this extraordinary Italian house. This is a unique opportunity to contribute a new chapter to the Roberto Cavalli universe, which positively celebrates the beauty, sensuality and power of women. It is my intention to show the passion I share for the codes and vision on which Roberto Cavalli built his brand while celebrating the excellence of Italian craftsmanship.” – said Paul Surridge
A young guy, easy and spontaneous with a lot to tell. From his experience in music, sports and shop, he comes to fashion with a fresh and personal point of view who brought him to be considered a landmark with his style.
Titled “Within The Time Within”, the collection was inspired by the deteriorated interiors of eighteenth-century Portuguese palaces, manor houses and garments from the same period.
The most promising names on Finland’s new fashion scenario will be the stars of the Guest Nation project sponsored by the Fondazione Pitti Immagine Discovery during Pitti Immagine Uomo 93.
This collection is a celebration of the essence of Versus in 90’s New York. Printed shirts, swimwear, flared pants and mesh vests become the essentials for today’s young men.
