Cashmere Care Guide

Cashmere's pliability means it's best stored folded on a shelf in your wardrobe, or in a drawer, rather than on a hanger (unless you like pointy bits on your shoulders). Better still, a box with a secure lid (or a zip-lock bag) adds an extra layer of protection from pesky moths. Ensure your cashmere jumpers are clean when storing them during the summer months – otherwise, they will be irresistible to moths looking for the perfect spot to lay their eggs. It's the hungry larvae that create the holes, after all.

Our cashmere clothing is perfect for adding a well-deserved touch of luxury to your wardrobe. We only use the highest quality fibres so our cashmere lasts longer, and caring for it properly lengthens its lifespan, too.

Follow our ambassador, broadcaster Vick Hope as she explores what happens to pre-loved cashmere clothing donated to Oxfam via our Another Life initiative. Since 2008, we have collected over 36 million items of clothing raising an estimated £23m for Oxfam’s vital work.
