Is there any better feeling than slipping into a sumptuous, soft cashmere sweater on a blistering cold day? Its inviting, indulgent warmth makes it a perfect — and stylish — line of defense against harsh winter weather.
And while the best cashmere sweaters often have a reputation for being pricey or high-maintenance, there’s a reason for it: Unlike sheep’s wool, cashmere comes from the ultra-soft, superfine fibers from a goat’s undercoat, making it even smoother to the touch than traditional wool. Still, styles can vary by weight, heft, or warmth factor, though one thing’s for certain: It’ll be one of the most supple, cozy, and comfortable items in your closet.
The Oversized Breton
This merino wool and plush cashmere blend sweater is even softer than you’d think — and its dropped shoulder and oversized fit makes it the perfect pick for anyone who prefers a slouchy look for colder days ahead.
The Sweater Vest
Sweater vests are having a moment, and what better way to get in on the trend than with something that feels timeless and versatile, too? Emerging brand Sa Su Phi’s knitwear-heavy designs are made in Italy from cashmere and mohair.
The Crop Sweater
A bright color and a cropped fit give this cotton-cashmere blend sweater a decidedly casual vibe. Wear it on its own or layer it with a button-down for a sophisticated look.
The Cardigan
This indulgently soft cardigan is made for layering, but looks just as chic on its own, too. Wear it with flowy slacks and slingback heels for an office-ready look, or with a pair of jeans and boots for a no-brainer weekend outfit.
The Cable Knit
Totême’s iteration of a traditional cable knit sweater isn’t so traditional thanks to its oversized swing silhouette and bright mustard hue.
The Pullover
A shawl collar in a three-gauge knit feels a bit more special than any old pullover.
The Turtleneck
This supersoft body-skimming turtleneck comes in black for the traditionalist, but the deep olive green hue is made to stand out.
The Coatigan
Knitted in Nepal from a blend of 75 percent recycled cashmere, this oversized cardigan is the perfect wintertime substitute for a stiff blazer.
The Off-the-Shoulder Sweater
Who says cashmere sweaters have to be conservative? This off-the-shoulder, tight-knit ribbed sweater from Lisa Yang features a cropped silhouette for an evening-ready twist.
The Polo
The iconic, athletic-inspired polo has finally been reimagined as a cozy winter staple. Its buttonless ribbed collar and wide fit at the shoulder lends a more comfortable, layer-able feel.
The Sweater Tee
A short-sleeve sweater usually splits the crowd, but this shrunken T-shirt style from State Cashmere is a guaranteed win. (The timeless cornflower blue color doesn’t hurt, either.)
The Striped Sweater
This modern striped cable knit cashmere sweater looks just as stylish tucked into a pair of trousers as it does with leggings and combat boots.
The Asymmetrical Sweater
Designer Aisling Camps is known for interesting silhouettes, fun details, and quality craftsmanship — and this asymmetric cutout sweater, crafted from recycled cashmere and wool, is no different. Just take a peek at the rolled neck and sleeve hems.
