If you were hoping to boogie with Roberto Cavalli in New York next month, you might be bummed:

The leopard-print legend has scheduled his H&M launch party for Rome, where one of 200 H&M stores will debut Cavalli’s new line.

But that doesn’t mean America’s left out - for Cavalli’s big launch date on November 8, the H&M flagship in New York has “some exciting things planned,” according to a spokesperson.

Will it be as exciting as the massive garden party that Mr. Cavalli threw while shooting his ad campaign? Probably not, but you can experience the drama vicariously on Cavalli’s H&M blog (yes, really).

And what if you don’t like animal print? It’s okay; Roberto’s made some slim black dresses for the collection too - black dresses like the ones worn by Renaissance noblewomen to establish their elite class and style… just in case you wanted yesterday’s trivia answer…
