- Is this sweater warm enough for winter?
- Yes for layering. The fine cashmere is warm for its weight, but the slim fit leaves little room for a thick base layer, so it works best under a coat or jacket in cold weather.
- Does the slim fit run small?
- It runs close to the body. If you want a relaxed fit or plan to layer over a shirt, go up one size; the elastane gives some stretch but not much.
- Can I machine wash it?
- No. It is dry-clean only. Hand washing risks shrinkage and loss of shape on a fine cashmere knit.
- Is it real cashmere?
- The label lists 97% cashmere with a small amount of elastane for stretch. That is a high cashmere content for a designer knit.
- How does it compare with a merino turtleneck?
- Cashmere is softer and lighter but pills more and costs more to care for. Merino is more durable and easier to wash, but less soft.
- What colors and sizes are available?
- It comes in white in sizes small through extra large. Check the size chart, since the slim cut runs close.
- Where is the Burberry Cashmere Turtleneck Sweater cheapest?
- At Burberry, for $1,395.00, as of our latest check.
