Great style transcends season and occasion. And what better than luxurious cashmere to elevate the style quotient and make women/men look and feel not just good, but warmly comfortable too?
But first, what is cashmere?
It's the soft, fine fibre from the undercoat of certain goats. This downy layer is protected by another layer, which is wool. While cashmere and wool are both natural fibres, cashmere is finer, softer and more durable.
There’s something about cashmere that adds a note of luxury to your ensemble, while keeping you stylish and warm. Here are 5 reasons why cashmere is a great choice:
Natural and sustainable
It is no secret that natural, sustainable fibres are friendly for the planet and for you. These fibres are obtained from goats and the best cashmere clothes and accessories do not use harmful dyes and chemicals. Since it is natural, there is also a lower risk of allergy.
Breathable
Cashmere keeps you warm – yet dry. With notable breathability, yet providing incredible warmth, cashmere ticks all the boxes for cozy and comfortable winter wear.
Ultra-soft
Cashmere comes from long, soft natural fibres which, when woven, create luxuriously soft pieces, and the best part is that they get softer with age. Also, unlike some other fibres, it does not irritate the skin and can be worn directly on it.
Durable
Once you get yourself a cashmere product and care for it correctly, you can be assured it will journey with you through many years. You can easily store it in a cool, dry place and place a sachet of lavender between its folds to keep moths away.
Not just winter wear
You may have thought that warm cashmere is good only for winters. However, you can use it during autumn and spring, both great times for a stylish jacket. Being lightweight gives it an added advantage.
