Banish your winter blues with a dose of 100 Ciels Cashmere! Yes, we are all getting the sniffles and yes, we are bringing our hot water bottles to work , but winter is also a time to celebrate! The cold weather means that we can layer up with plenty of cosy cashmere, which is enough to brighten us all up! Below is a selection of our pieces which take on a cool colour palette for inspiration in the colder weather.

We popped down to the Fashion & Textiles Museum  to see the Knitwear, Chanel to Westwood, an exhibition comprised mainly of items from the collection of Mark and Cleo Butterfield. The pieces are presented in wooden crates, stacked one on top of the other and are accompanied by images of knitwear from various publications and fashion shoots.     The pair have been collecting pieces of knit and crocheted garments since the 1960’s and they cover a huge amount of years, ranging from late Victorian and Edwardian periods to present day items. Pieces from hand-knitting gurus Patricia Roberts and Bill Gibb are featured along side household names such as Chanel, Missoni, Vivienne Westwood, Zandra Rhodes and Sonia Rykiel. Top tip: Take your sketchpad to the exhibition for some quick drawings! Book tickets here! Check out our knits here!
