Roberto Cavalli and his models

[Fashion Puss]

I met with a model friend of mine after she had done the rounds of the London / NY / Milan etc Fashion Weeks. She told me that it was widely known that Roberto Cavalli will only use a model in one of his advertising campaigns if she sleeps with him. Only after that will be use her (maybe...)
Can this really be true?

And though I know people will scoff at this I read in an article a couple years back that his wife is his muse and I thought she was quite heavily involved in working with him? I'm not saying he doesn't still cheat but I don't think it's with every model in his campaigns.

i'm not surprised if this is true. well... your friend is a model, i guess she knows the best!

But i'm surprised about Heather Marks! :S Maybe Roberto only chooses certain ones to sleep with? Who knows? Is this common in the fashion world? sleeping with designers to get campaigns?

Although I wonder what percentage of designers are actually straight.

It is common to sleep with agents, I know that for sure. Especially if you're a male model. I used to have a lot of friends in the business when I was younger, and I've heard some horrible stories. It's a tough business.

How old might these agents be?

I don't think its a good idea to be posting comments that you can't back up with proof. It's called negative gossip and in this case it's about a major designer.

This is like the cliche of movie producers sleeping with actresses. Partially true though.

I don't know the age of the agents, but I know the ones mentioned worked in Paris. About 4-5 yrs ago. The most profiled jobs goes through the agents bedroom. This male model was considered very successful at the time. It totally disgusted me..

But who wants to be in his campaigns anyway?!
