Damac Properties last month (November) reached a construction milestone with the topping out of Cavalli Tower, an AED1-billion ($272 million) residential project and the world’s first tower with interiors designed by Italian fashion house, Roberto Cavalli.

Rising 71 storeys beside the beach in Dubai Marina, the tower is a symbol of architectural ambition and branded elegance, featuring 436 units conceived by Shaun Killa, who also designed Dubai’s Museum of the Future, and bespoke interiors curated by Roberto Cavalli Home Interiors.

The tower has one- to five‑bedroom apartments, duplexes and five‑bedroom penthouses, with vistas of the sea, Palm Jumeirah or Dubai Marina. Cavalli Tower is now on track for handover by the end of next year.

The topping-out ceremony, attended by project stakeholders from Damac and lead contractors CSCEC, marked the completion of the tower’s superstructure with the final pour of concrete on the 71st floor slab.

Substructure works are now complete, with internal and external finishes now progressing toward completion, it stated.

Speaking on the occasion, Ali Sajwani, Managing Director, Damac Group, said: “Cavalli Tower is a structural and design landmark that embodies Damac’s futuristic vision to blend fashion, architecture and art into Dubai’s skyline. With this topping out, we are one step closer to delivering a true global landmark in luxury living.”

Launched in 2021, Cavalli Tower’s design evokes the glamour and boldness synonymous with the Cavalli brand. Damac Group’s 2019 acquisition of Roberto Cavalli reinforced its commitment to integrating global fashion heritage into real estate.

The partnership extends beyond this project to other upcoming developments including Damac Bay 1 and 2 by Cavalli, and Cavalli Estates in Damac Hills.

Select units boast private terraces, pools or Jacuzzis and hydroponic living walls. The tower will feature private sky pools, sky gardens, and an infinity pool. It also has a Malibu Bay-inspired beach pool and four-storey-high lobby.

The tower offers residents a distinct lifestyle experience, from garden-view apartments to top-floor sky residences with panoramic sea vistas, it added.
