The beauty of Twitter is that sometimes I get quick tidibits from people pointing me to links that I might find interesting and sure enough somebody dug out a treasure. Or perhaps it's trash depending on how you feel about obscure Italian hoisery/bodywear labels. In the same way that I've written about Wolford or Falke in the past and how their e-commerce sites (which leave a lot to be desired...) sometimes throw up some unexpected gems, Emilio Cavallini, an Italian tights brand that I have come across in department stores, also has somethings that might sneak their way into my wardrobe...
The thing I almost find strange about hoisery brands is that they even bother making actual clothes at all... as in things that don't come in neat white boxes... not that the clothes are rubbish or anything but I rarely actually see a Wolford tee or in this case an Emilio Cavallini dress in physical proximity and only ever seem to come across them whilst randomly web surfing. Still, I guess there must be some purpose they're serving...like tight bodywear with matching tights to make for a head to toe dipped in pattern look... Cavallini's A/W 08 op art collection for instance.
In any case the site is for bodycon layering addicts such as myself that also likes adding to bulging cardboard boxes full of tights with yet...another pair of tights...and since Cavallini is always tucked away in some random hoisery department I might as well get web-happy...
