Welcome to the flared pants, bellbottom jeans and wide-legged pants, and the bigger the better. The new season sees a great comeback: the bellbottom trend, that has dominated the catwalks for the new Spring/Summer collection and now it is ready to establish itself in the windows of all fashion shops and in our closets.

From the tight thigh and flared bottom, in perfect 70’s style, to the wide-legged, the bellbottom pants are the latest trend (or it would be better to say: the big comeback) of the new season.

S/S 2008 best ads: Roberto Cavalli and the Rock&Roll

Cavalli - Rock&RollParisian band Rock&Roll will star in Roberto Cavalli’s Spring 2008 menswear campaign, which will debut later this month.

The band is composed of five members: lead singer Gricha Berekachvili, bass player Luc Arnal, guitarist and second voice Matthias Cadéac d’Arbaud, Vincent-John Soimaud on the tambourine, and drummer Paul Louis Viguier. Cavalli said the quintet “embodies the aristocratic-chic Parisian style and the energy and force of rock music.” That’s the reason why he has linked the image of this band (named Rock&Roll Best New Band of 2006 by French rock magazine Inrockuptible) to his men’s collection.

The images were shot in Los Angeles by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin.

The dress changes continuously by becoming tinged with different colours, being enriched by new materials and taking new shapes. This year it’s the turn of the little balloon dresses, like those of the Just Cavalli and Emporio Armani collections. Two different ways of seeing the same clothing item and the same trend. Just Cavalli collection is sexy and naughty while the Emporio Armani collection is sparkling and charming.

Very shirt voluminous and soft skirts, low necklines, and plenty of details: these are the main characteristics of the small-sized dresses, of the Just Cavalli collection, that must be worn with high-heeled booties. The dress become shorter for the Emporio Armani collection as well, however this time there are no high heels but, on the contrary, silver and patent leather ballerina flats.
