In just a day away from the beginning of the Milano Fashion Week, designer Roberto Cavalli criticised two of his fellows Italian fashion collegues Giorgio Armani and Dolce&Gabbana as part of a wider attack on Camera Nazionale della Moda.
"Camera Nazionale della Moda limits itself to scheduling fashion shows, twice a year," wrote Cavalli on his blog. "The Cavalli maison has always been a member of the fashion chamber. I think that Armani is a member, too, but his every choice is perceived as an order! Dolce & Gabbana are not members but they don't care about others and pursue their own interests as if they were the only fashion house in Italy. Other relevant Italian brands are owned by French companies and, as usual, Italians pull out the red carpet for foreigners. The Camera Nazionale della Moda supports only big names, giving small companies what's left." The Italian designer's dissatisfaction comes from Armani's decision to move his Milan show from Monday September 24 to Sunday September 23 - leaving Cavalli as the only big name on the last day of the city's schedule, provoking concerns that the fashion press will miss his show in order to travel to Paris for the next set of shows.
"As usual, the Camera Nazionale della Moda is washing its hands of the situation and it will not go against the wishes of Little King Armani, and therefore the problems are mine alone," he said. "What can I do? Do I stay the final day, running the risk that some foreign journalists will not attend my show, or should I overlap with a smaller brands, acting as some of my colleagues do?"

Minnie and Daisy Duck on the catwalk? The Barneys proposes this new Christmas advertising campaign.
For the holiday season, the New York store has "modernized" the design of some of the most iconic characters of Disney house dressing for the occasion, the creations of some high-fashion house.
And so Minnie as Lanvin, Dolce & Gabbana Daisy Duck and Goofy becomes a model for Balmain.
The campaign follows the success of Lady Gaga of 2011, with titled "Electric Holiday"- start on November 14.
A truly radical restyling in some cases because while Goofy, Mickey Mouse is that in all one of the few with the physique du rôle to get on the catwalk, has just suffered a slight touch-up "hairstyle", Daisy Duck and Minnie have become sylphs diaphanous and skinny for obvious purposes of the story, pace of loyal Disney.
The group — including chief executive officer Mark Lee, creative director Dennis Freedman and senior vice president Charlotte Blechman, as well as executives from communications and visual — toured Walt Disney’s apartment and went on rides like It’s a Small World, Pirates of the Caribbean, Space Mountain and Captain EO.
The short film centers around Minnie Mouse’s fantasy to be at the Paris shows. There she comes across key Disney characters — Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Daisy Duck, Cruella de Vil, Princess Tiana and Snow White — all decked out in unique designer clothes as they make their way down the runway.
The theme is a riff on Disney’s famous electrical parade, as well as the special lighting installations so central to the New York holiday season and the flashbulbs of fashion runways.
