Cashmere is a luxurious addition to any closet. It’s warm, tactile, feels exceptionally soft against your skin, and gives even the simplest of outfits an upmarket feel. Plus, at this time of year, you’ll often find cashmere in the sales – so it’s the perfect opportunity to wear now and then put away for the cooler months next winter. Below, you’ll find the most stylish cashmere clothes we’ve found, as well as how to wear them with a capsule wardrobe focused on cashmere outfits.
Brands to shop for cashmere outfits
If you are treating yourself to cashmere – whether a sweater or loungewear, these are the best stores to take a look at.
Even with any beginning-of-year discounts, cashmere is still an investment, so choose timeless pieces that you really love and will want to wear year after year.

Cashmere outfits for going out or lounging at home
The beauty of cashmere is that you can wear it for the most casual of occasions, like lounging at home, or you can dress up your cashmere for an evening out. We’ve chosen versatile cashmere so you can choose the option that works best for you.
Cashmere tops
Let’s start out cashmere capsule with tops. Cashmere sweaters are such a fantastic wardrobe staple, as you can wear them with everything from skirts to jeans to your pajamas for a day at home. Choose classic crew or V-neck to ensure they stand the test of time; opt for hoodies on casual days; and look for asymmetry to add a point of difference to your outfit.

Jackets and coats
We love cashmere or cashmere-blend coats and cover-ups. Cashmere is fantastic for staying warm without adding too much bulk. Choose timeless straight, trench, and coatigan styles, and you can be sure you’ll be able to wear your cashmere whenever the weather gets cold. We also love cashmere wraps for transitional seasons when you don’t want a full coat – they’re also great for travelling, to stay cozy on the plane, and for cooler evenings.

pants
When you think of cashmere, your mind probably turns to sweaters first. But, cashmere pants can also be a fantastic investment. Opting for cashmere track pants really elevates a casual classic. Wear with more cashmere, with a t-shirt when the weather warms up, or dress up with a silk camisole or blouse and blazer.
