Emilio Cavallini is an Italian designer, he began his career in the 1970s with hosiery, going on to start a ready-to-wear line in the 1980s. He partnered with Mary Quant in the 1960s working on her hosiery line, the influence of Quant can be seen in his later designs too which sometimes have a 1960s space age feel.
