Roberto Cavalli Deepens Commitment To amfAR At Las Vegas Gala 2025
Roberto Cavalli reaffirmed its support for amfAR as a Signature Sponsor at the 2025 Las Vegas benefit gala, held at the illustrious Wynn Las Vegas during Grand Prix weekend. This high-profile event underscores the Maison’s dedication to AIDS research, gathering philanthropists, cultural luminaries, and fashion connoisseurs in one room.

“Divina Africa”: A Couture Gown Inspired By Nature
At the heart of the live auction stood the extraordinary couture gown “Divina Africa”, handcrafted in Roberto Cavalli’s Couture Atelier in Italy. Drawing its inspiration from Africa’s vivid landscapes and rich palette, the gown embodies the Maison’s legacy of bold creativity and artisan craftsmanship.
The gown is cut in a sleek column silhouette with an internal corset, a deep centre‑front neckline, and a bare back. It is tied around the neck with braided and embroidered lanyards. The elaborate embroidery — made of crystals and micro‑materials — reflects natural motifs in a delicate interplay of light, shadow, and transparency. It is quintessential Cavalli: daring, elegant, and deeply sophisticated.
