Avon Celli<br />
| Fall Focus | Founded in 1922, Avon Celli stays true<br />
to its roots as a luxury cashmere knitwear company<br />
and keeps its collection modern with fashionable design,<br />
details and color. Famed for using machines designed<br />
for making ladies’ stockings to weave the very<br />
finest sweaters, these pullovers remain wardrobe<br />
essentials. We challenge you to find a lighter-weight<br />
weave. Its Capsule 1922 collection represents the<br />
brand’s highest standards of quality and all the elements<br />
of its rich history. Now the company is expanding<br />
into socks, jackets, leather goods and tailored<br />
garments.<br />
| Key Pieces | Rich browns are key colors for knitwear<br />
this season. The perfect layering piece is a jacket that<br />
has the elements of a sweater. Also opt for a classic<br />
24-ply knit sweater, which is crafted without seams (a<br />
24-hour knitting process). The new leather accessories,<br />
as soft as its knitwear since they are made from<br />
deerskin, include jackets and bags. The duffel will sell<br />
for $4,000, and a jacket with a wallaby hood will cost<br />
about $11,000.<br />
| Where to Buy | The Avon Celli collection is available<br />
in top menswear boutiques in New York, Monte<br />
Carlo, Dusseldorf, London, Zurich, Madrid, Milan,<br />
Moscow, Seoul, Tokyo and Hong Kong. Visit www.<br />
