Italian Fashion designer, Roberto Cavalli, believes that the US sense of fashion is terrible and that Vogue's Anna Wintour is to blame for it.


The US is one place that has always been the hub of brewing fashion trends and statements. However, Italian Fashion designer, Roberto Cavalli begs to differ saying, "US fashion is terrible". So much so that he "almost can't look at it." The designer then goes on to put the majority of the blame on US Vogue magazine editor, Anna Wintour, stating that she wants everyone to "dress the way she does."

"Just look at American fashion, which is almost fashion. It's terrible and you almost can't look at it, but it has been driven by a great journalist - Anna Wintour - who wants all women to be like her and to dress the way she does," Cavalli said.

Cavalli then went on to request that the younger generation of designers in the country break away from the traditional mold and "try to be different and try to create artistic styles' for their designs to have a chance of actually being worn," he said.

"I see young people coming out of design schools and they are too minimalist," he added. "Probably because their professors are minimalist, because they in turn have professors who follow styles of designs that are too industrial and commercial. I can only say try to be different and try to create artistic styles. Then the clothes can be transformed, changed and modified to take into account wearability and the possibility of actually being worn."
