Women's Cashmere

Looking to make an investment in a superior cashmere piece? With so many beautiful choices on offer, it can be hard to know if you’re buying the right cashmere. Whether it’s a buttery soft scarf that feels good against your neck or a cosy cashmere jumper to see you through the coldest winter mornings, you want to make sure you invest well. Sometimes cashmere looks great online, then arrives and feels quite thin and meagre, not especially warm, verging on sheer. Other times, it feels rough as if it’s been blended with another fibre, like sheep’s wool - not the snuggly softness you’d been imagining.

At Rise & Fall we only use the best cashmere, that’s 100% A-grade Mongolian cashmere which makes for remarkably soft, long lasting pieces. The secret is in the hairs, combed from cashmere goats and measuring in at 15.5 microns and 34-36mm in length. The fibre length combined with the fine quality of this cashmere is what makes it so warm and cosy while also being very lightweight. And the best bit? Those long fibres ensure our cashmere pieces will last and last.

We also like to make sure our cashmere items are generously woven, in a premium weight cashmere that feels thick and luxurious. You can even check the weight on the product pages so you know it will actually keep you warm and cosy.

Why Rise & Fall?

We believe that to make good products, every aspect of the supply chain must be considered. That’s why the cashmere fibres for our pieces are only combed from the goats in the spring when they are starting to shed their thick winter coats. It then goes to a mill that is certified by the Good Cashmere Standard, the Sustainable Fibre Alliance and the Responsible Wool Standard - ensuring the grasslands are preserved, farmers are fairly paid and the entire cycle is sustainable.

Apart from choosing beautiful, sustainable materials, we also partner directly with world class manufacturers to bring you beautifully finished cashmere at prices you wouldn't expect. With our innovative business model, our manufacturers get paid fairly for their craftsmanship and our customers get amazing value for money.

Whether it’s a cosy cashmere hoodie to throw on at the weekend, a classic V-neck jumper to see you through meetings, or a luxurious wrap to cocoon yourself in on a long journey, each item is designed to be versatile and long lasting.
