- Is a cashmere blazer warm enough for cool weather?
- Yes. Cashmere insulates better than wool of the same weight, so it works as a light outer layer in spring and fall. It is not a substitute for a coat in winter.
- How does it compare with a wool blazer?
- It feels softer and warmer and drapes more loosely. Wool holds its shape and resists creasing better, which matters if you wear a blazer all day.
- Can I wash it at home?
- No. It is dry clean only. Hand washing cashmere jackets risks shrinkage and loss of shape, especially with a viscose lining.
- Does it fit true to size?
- It is cut as a tailored blazer, so take your usual jacket size. The unstructured cashmere gives a little room through the body but not the shoulders.
- What is it lined with?
- A viscose lining, which helps the jacket slide over shirts and fine knits. Viscose is smooth but less durable than cupro or silk.
- Will white cashmere show wear quickly?
- It can. White shows marks and pilling sooner than darker shades, so rotate it and brush it after wear.
