Cashmere Was Inappropriate For Spring And Summer?
As we enter April and the temperature rises, I've noticed that some fashionistas are not in a hurry to add new lightweight clothing, but instead change out of cashmere items early. I'm afraid it's a myth that you can't wear cashmere in spring and summer. In fact, cashmere is also very suitable for the warmer seasons.
In the American drama War of Inheritance, the children of the top luxury family wear precious luxury cashmere year-round, which is both comfortable and loose. It is not affected by the seasons or temperatures. Cate Blanchett starred in the film Blue Jasmine, in which the heroine Jasmine wears a cashmere suit at home or on holiday. This is a habit she has developed over the course of her life, as it is consistent with the lifestyle of a noblewoman. Cashmere, known as the "diamond fibre", has been associated with a luxurious and affluent lifestyle from the very beginning.
On the one hand, cashmere is soft, low-profile, with a delicate glossy appearance, very consistent with the leisure class of the "quiet luxury" taste; on the other hand, the unique fibre structure of cashmere material has excellent breathability, can regulate humidity, and is light and comfortable. It would appear that a new trend is emerging among the younger generation of affluent individuals: the wearing of cashmere in the spring and summer months.
Upper-class girls are not required to be overly trendy, but rather, they should adopt a lasting and stable elegant aesthetic that aligns with the family style legacy. This explains why elite women, from royalty to Amal Clooney and Natalia Vodianova, have become obsessed with cashmere. Firstly, cashmere is delicate and incredibly light to the touch, making it a precious wearing experience. This addresses the need for newcomers to the upper class to focus on their feelings rather than their fashions. Secondly, the natural self-rolling qualities of the cashmere fibre give cashmere garments excellent resilience. No matter how wrinkled it is, if you shake it off a few times, it will slowly return to flatness, avoiding the embarrassment of folds to the greatest extent possible. Furthermore, the warmth and lustre of natural cashmere is unmatched by other fabrics.
Having addressed the myth of "not wearing cashmere in spring and summer", let's discuss another common misconception about cashmere: that it is old-fashioned and unfashionable.
One of the key reasons for the misunderstanding of cashmere is its association with the low-key and quiet style of the upper class. With younger generations at the helm of leading cashmere brands, they are creating clothing for the "new old money" that continues the tradition of classic elegance, but also injects a new style that is young and modern.
One of the key reasons for the lack of understanding of cashmere is that it is often associated with the low-key and quiet style of the upper class.

Furthermore, the economic downturn and social instability have led to a renewed interest in the leisurely lifestyle of the upper class, driving the "old money style" and "quiet luxury style" to become the mainstream trend keywords in recent years. At the same time, cashmere, which is favoured by the affluent class, has also appeared more widely in the design of various fashion brands.
Finally, it is worth considering whether these clothes are perceived as "old-fashioned". It is evident that these items are the most sought-after and popular fashion items this spring. They have been observed on the catwalks of fashion week and on social media by fashion bloggers and Gen-Z trendsetters alike.
