Well, these two certainly make for an eye-catching couple.

Roberto Cavalli, 73, hit the beach with his 20-something girlfriend Lina Nilson on Wednesday where the two showed off their matching styles, both sporting leopard print swimsuits.

The loved-up couple turned heads as Cavalli rocked a pair of blue leopard print briefs that left little to the imagination while his much younger lady love wore a colorful animal-print two-piece which highlighted her bangin' bikini bod.

Cavalli and Nilson appeared relaxed and comfortable as they soaked up the sunshine, seemingly unabashed as paps snapped pics of the pair in their skimpy beachwear.

Of course, this isn't the first time we've seen the pair together. The fashion mogul was previously hosed down by his stunning GF aboard his yacht while the couple was vacationing on the isle of Sardinia (and yes, he was wearing another pair of itty-bitty briefs).

The Italian fashion designer most recently made headlines when he accused Michael Kors of ripping off his designs in an interview with Miami's Haute Living magazine in February 2014.

"Mr. Michael Kors, he copies everything!" he said. "It's really a scandal and nobody has the courage to say anything. It's really not fair."

And apparently Cavalli's beef isn't just with Kors—it's with the state of fashion as a whole. He also told Haute Living, "Fashion is just about money now. There's no evolution. In the 18th and 19th centuries, fashion used to completely change every 20 years….Now, there is less creativity. There's been nothing truly new since the 1950s, except many sneakers."

Wonder if he feels the same about swimwear.
