Tips to Consider when Making an Investment in a Cashmere Scarf

When deciding on a cashmere scarf to purchase, it’s important to consider the qualities of the scarf you’re purchasing to make sure it’s high quality and adds a luxurious look to your wardrobe. Here are several factors to consider when looking into your favourite cashmere scarf to invest in.

 

Read the label to find out about the quality

It is important that you read the label of the cashmere scarf to find more information about the scarf. A 100% cashmere label is an indicator of the quality of the scarf as it usually means that the scarf is exceptionally soft, provides warmth and has high durability. You can also check for the grade of the scarf, with grades like A indicating higher quality and finer fabrics being used.

 

Check for pilling potential

Inspect to see if the cashmere scarf is pilling-resistant or is made up of long fibre. You can also rub the cashmere scarf lightly to check if any fibres shed or roll up.

 

Inspect for thickness

Consider the reason why you’re buying a cashmere scarf when inspecting for the thickness of the scarf. If the cashmere scarf is intended to be used every day, a normal thickness with a regular length is preferable. If you're looking for a stylish scarf for a soft summer breeze, a featherlight cashmere scarf will do the trick. A more thick one can be used to keep you warm during the harsh winter.

 

Lookout for the weave structure

A double-ply structure can give you ample warmth, while also avoiding less stretching, damaging and piling while also being long-lasting.

 

Get educated on price ranges

Before purchasing a cashmere scarf, educate yourself on the average prices of the cashmere scarves according to their quality grades and set yourself a budget when you go shopping for a sophisticated cashmere scarf.

 

Design and the colour palette

Cashmere scarves come in all kinds of colours and patterns. Don’t be scared to browse for a scarf that speaks to you and gives you the look you are aiming for.

 

A high-quality cashmere scarf can not only add colour and style to your wardrobe, but it can also last for years or even decades with proper care. So indulge yourself in a luxurious embrace of a carefully hand-picked cashmere scarf.
