Best Cashmere Jumpers – Top 15

When you Google search ‘cashmere jumper women’, the results and options can feel overwhelming. Marks and Spencers cashmere and Boden cashmere have claimed spots in our recommended retailers list for their quality and variety of colours and styles (there are also exquisite Marks and Spencer cashmere cardigan options). Styles and colours like those from ASOS, Boden and M&S below are great to throw in the mix if you want a reasonably-priced option.

In terms of colours and patterns, classic stripes, neutrals and more colourful shades that suit your complexion will serve you well. Whether you prefer crew, v-neck or polo neck is a personal choice, but often a style that opens the décolletage area is more slimming, while higher necks are so chic. Keep any details like frills or sleeve shapes minimal or in a style you know will remain in fashion if you want your cashmere jumper to be a true investment item.

A quality tip, whether shopping in person or online, is to check for a ‘pure cashmere UK’ label (or other origin tab) to see if the jumper is 100% cashmere or cashmere blend. You can’t go wrong with quality, trusted brands (we especially love Marks and Spencer jumpers!). Also read the care instructions to ensure the piece remains pristine – all cashmere requires special care but it’s worth the investment in the long run. It’s a piece you’ll return to throughout the years that will work with your body.

When you consider jumpers for women, dressy ensembles don’t spring to mind, but consider pairing a cashmere jumper with the right heels, dress or skirt and you’ll be hitting serious style notes. Skirts and dresses with a bit of sparkle, flow or satin sheen complement cashmere beautifully. A-line cuts and slip dresses are a perfect match for dressing-up a jumper and adding a bit of glamour to the occasion. Don’t forget your killer heels and you’ll be looking fabulous, head to toe.

Women’s cashmere jumpers are also an asset to a professional wardrobe; not to mention the kind of garment which works for meetings and luncheons. Straight or A-line skirts in quality material look put-together with sweaters of different shapes. Colour coordinate your ensemble for workplace chic or go for a pretty print with some tailoring to make it professional. Accessorise with smart boots and a bag and you’ll elevate the look to office worthy.

The best jumpers can be used for different occasions; chic or relaxed glamour depending. As demonstrated by Margot Robbie, the best cashmere sweaters can be anything but demure when styled with the right bottoms. This ensemble is chic and sexy, suitable for a date night or evening out. When going for this sort of look, don’t be afraid to juxtapose the soft nature of the jumper with edgier pieces. It can give you that effortless, nonchalant kind of vibe and is a great bet if you don’t know what to wear.

Best Cashmere Jumpers: Final Notes

• Investing in a cashmere jumper is a great choice, because not only is this a versatile garment but also it’s long lasting and truly luxurious. Boden cashmere and Marks and Spencer womens cashmere jumpers are amongst the best on the high street.
• Choose a cashmere jumper in a neutral hue or colour that complements you (if you choose a print go for a classic one like stripes) and simple detailing that won’t be out of style. Search via reputable resellers.
• Going dressy with your cashmere jumper is easy; pair with a slip dress or feminine skirt and heels for a dressy take on a classic.
• When it comes to styling your cashmere (preferably oversized) for casual days, a pair of jeans or shorts with tights is a relaxed take on styling this garment.
• For a professional spin on your cashmere jumper, pair with a pencil or A-line skirt or trousers.
• Looking to celebrities for inspiration, don’t be afraid to don coloured cashmere, embrace ladylike style and dare to be bold with pairing options (e.g. leather and cashmere).
• Final tip – to ensure quality, check the product description. You want to see a 100% cashmere rating.
