Dressed to Kilt — and yes I mean KILT– because being Scottish means wearing the kilt and the tartans– and most particularly the best cashmere in the world.. Begg Scotland!
There are always times when you flip through a magazine or you walk through a store and you see a blanket, shawl, gloves, hat, even a sweater that’s rich in color, and oh la la soft in texture and you know its cashmere.
Cashmere implies a certain kind of lifestyle and it’s sheer luxury is undeniable. However perhaps you haven’t heard about the finest cashmere in the world– BEGG SCOTLAND!!

More than just the Scottish wear cashmere– it’s worn all over the globe and was seen in the Fall 2006 LAFW at the DRESSED TO KILT EVENT kicking off LAFW.

Cashmere so fine that you can pull it through a tiny ring — and it’s woven and refined as only the Scottish can do.
No one else produces cashmere this fine and of such quality that even the luxe clothing and accessories houses (the ones with the $5 K handbags and the $500 dollar scarves) have BEGG produce their cashmere under a private label.
