It's true.  We are absolutely Mad for Plaid and we'd say that of the four seasons, Fall gives us the most opportunity to celebrate this classic style!  Namely, with Mover and Shaker Emilio Cavallini!  Tartan tights Style 5E15.1.43 4T are exactly what you need to put the right amount of ooomph in your fall look and finally step out stunningly!  There has never been a year before when style (and everything else!?!) has been more appreciated, and the world is dying to emerge and look their best.  Tights are a underutilized accessory that can immediately transform a look raising the taste level of your outfit to the fashion stratosphere, and absolutely NO ONE DOES LEGWEAR BETTER THAN EMILIO CAVALLINI!!!!  Designed in Italy, Crafted in Italy, these high style tights announce quality the moment they touch your skin.  Emilo's Tartan Earns Whom You Know's Highest Recommendation.

FALL/WINTER 2020/21 
Emilio Cavallini’s woman for fall-winter 2020 is strong, daring, almost shameless.
She wants to be the focus of attention and she highlights her legs with tights that are the main focus of her look. 
It is a collection full of geometric looks: classic dots that become diamonds, graphic crochet, herringbones, modern houndstooth, spirals and plaid. 
Even the animal look is transformed and sterner. 
Emilio Cavallini doesn’t eliminate lace, a must-have for fall-winter 2020 and he presents it in red or gold, for a stronger, bolder effect. 
The skinny pants are available in all the line themes, laces, animal and plaid.

Emilio Cavallini’s background

#MadForPlaid #AmazingAccessories #FashionAlert #MoverandShaker #EmilioCavallini @EmilioCavallini Plaid Stockings Earn Whom You Know's Highest Recommendation!

Mirror mirror on the wall, which Emilio Cavallini style this year is the fairest of them all?
Mad Plaid!  Mad Plaid!  Mad Plaid!  Says Peachy Deegan!
She is just mad for plaid, and when it's by Emilio Cavallini, it's just THAT much better.  Plaid is a highly underutilized pattern in the fashion market today, and totally reminiscent of our Celtic roots.  We love these the most in blue, but you should know they also come in maroon, particularly notable for all of you Boston College Eagles.  They are absolutely essential for all Irish dancers to wear with your step dancing shoes (think Riverdance) and the placement of the plaid pattern is indeed masterful on your legs.  Of course, because it is by Emilio Cavallini, the master!  Mad for Plaid Earns Whom You Know's Highest Recommendation.

FALL/WINTER 2019/20 
Balanced between modern-day romanticism and a seductive celebration of femininity, the new Emilio Cavallini Fall-Winter 2019/20 collection plays with innocence’s elusive allure. In a play of light, shade and color, the ‘girl next door’ confidently sports intriguing sheer textures, audacious lace and openwork patterns, and rewrites the rules of bon ton with printed floral designs and vibrant autumn hues. 
The colors are basic and necessary: burgundy, olive green, purple, navy and of course black, the most important color.

“When I started my company (Stilnovo SpA) in 1970, I was intrigued by the idea of pulling hosiery out of anonymity, of transforming it into a ‘garment’ unto itself,” says Cavallini. The designer adds, “Miniskirts expose so much of the leg that tights are an integral part of any outfit. Let’s face it, the leg makes up more than 30 percent of a head-to-toe look.”


Made in Italy…
All Emilio Cavallini products are MADE IN ITALY, produced by expert Italian craftsmen and a huge staff that prides itself on excellence in every step of production, delivery and service. All production processes (knitting, dying, ironing, printing, packaging) take place in the Stilnovo factory located in San Miniato (near Florence, Italy). , which has just undergone major renovations, including a new showroom space designed to present the product.

#AmazingAccessories #Tartan #Plaid #MadforPlaid #FantasticFallFashion #FashionAlert #MoverandShaker @emiliocavallini #ItalyPeachy The Hottest Legs Around the World Are Sporting Tartan Leggings by Mover and Shaker Emilio Cavallini! Tartan Earns Our Highest Recommendation.

Sure, you could wear a kilt, but it's so much more 2018 to wear fine leggings crafted by the best in Florence, Italy!  As the weather cools down, we have searched the globe for the best in fall fashion and this is our favorite item to date we have published on for this fall.  You can hear the bagpipes going off in your head victoriously as you slide each leg in, and note they are available in both black and white, as shown, and black and red, as you will see on Peachy.  As the temperature starts to dip, you will unequivocally agree that these are much warmer than a kilt or skirt also!  They can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion, and the classy small tartan print is understated and elegant.
Bravo Emilio!

See Manhattan On Your Feet and Repel the Rain with Maniera Royal Stewart Red Boots, Highly Recommended by Whom You Know! Whom You Know Is Pleased as Punch to Kick Off Our Coverage of Maniera Boots!


These boots are made for walking, and since the first day Peachy Deegan wore them and quite literally walked ten miles in them, we can firmly state with her blisterless feet, who would smile if they had a mouth, that these boots are high caliber.  Also, about ten people stopped her that day on the street complimenting her on these winners and naturally she said they'd be able to read all about them on whomyouknow.com.  They are so preppy they will go with all of your hunter green and navy combinations which are picked up nicely in this knockout plaid.


All week we have had this crazy weather in Manhattan: sunny for five minutes, cloudy for five minutes, rainy for five minutes, repeat a million times.  You will not look ridiculous in these when the sun comes out, contrary to many other lesser boots.  Whom You Know highly recommends the Maniera Royal Stewart Boots in red: smart and beautiful, what more could you want?
