Let’s be real: cashmere doesn’t usually come cheap. As a luxury fabric, if you’re shopping for cashmere it’s likely to be as an investment piece (or at this time of year, the ultimate indulgent gift for a loved one) – but whether you’re on the hunt for a perfect cashmere jumper for yourself or someone else, don’t over look high street cashmere on your search.
While quality can vary, there are some real affordable gems to be had on the rails of stores like M&S (whose cashmere roll neck is a cult fashion insider favourite), Uniqlo and even in H&M’s premium quality range, many of which are under £100. These are the best shapes, styles and colours we’ve found for 2022 – look after them well and they’ll last just as long as their more expensive counterparts.
