Roberto Cavalli and RAK Ceramics announce exclusive licensing partnership

Roberto Cavalli and RAK Ceramics have signed an exclusive multiyear agreement bringing the fashion house's design language to tiles, sanitaryware and faucets across twelve markets.

July 8, 2026

Roberto Cavalli has entered into an exclusive, multiyear licensing agreement with RAK Ceramics, extending the fashion house’s design language into tiles, sanitaryware and faucets. Under the agreement, RAK Ceramics will oversee development, manufacturing and distribution of the collection across twelve markets, including the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and India, spanning both retail and wholesale channels.

The partnership is notable less for its novelty than for what it confirms. Fashion-to-interiors licensing is no longer an occasional crossover; it is becoming a structural feature of how surface and sanitaryware brands differentiate in a crowded market. For manufacturers, aligning with an established design house offers instant narrative and shelf presence. For the fashion side, fixed interiors represent a durable extension of brand equity beyond apparel and accessories cycles.
