- Is this sweater warm enough for winter?
- Not on its own. It is a lightweight cashmere knit with short sleeves, so it works as a layer over a long-sleeve top or under a jacket. For cold weather, a full-sleeve cashmere sweater is the better choice.
- How should I care for 100% cashmere?
- Hand wash in cool water with a cashmere shampoo, or dry clean. Dry flat and never hang it, since the weight of wet cashmere stretches the shoulders. Store folded with cedar to deter moths.
- Does it run true to size?
- Prada knits generally follow Italian sizing, which runs smaller than US sizing. Check the size chart and consider sizing up if you want a relaxed fit rather than a close one.
- Can I wear it on its own?
- Yes. The short sleeve and round neck make it a finished top, not just an underlayer. It pairs well with high-waisted trousers or a midi skirt.
- Will the cashmere pill?
- Some pilling is normal on soft cashmere, especially under the arms and where a bag rubs. A fabric comb removes it, and pilling usually lessens after the first few wears and washes.
- What is the contrast trim?
- The sweater has a contrasting trim at the neckline and sleeve edges that frames the grey body. It is a design detail, not a separate removable piece.
- Where is the Prada Womens Grey Contrast-Trim Short-Sleeve Cashmere Jumper cheapest?
