ROBERTO CAVALLI: SELLING HIS NAMESAKE LABEL
The lyrics to Adele’s hit track Rumour Has It having been ringing through my cerebrum all morning. And with good reason: the Internet is rife with rumours that Roberto Cavalli is selling an 80 per cent stake in his eponymous label. The buyers are thought to be Permira, which owns New Look and Hugo Boss. As yet, these speculations have been dismissed by the label as “just rumours”. Perhaps the lyric, “I’m tired of rumours starting”, from Lindsay Lohan’s lesser known single is echoing throughout Cavalli HQ this morning. Maybe, just maybe.
