The peacock of Jermyn Street, Turnbull & Asser, has always been known for its use of colour: little wonder that Picasso and Hockney have both been loyal customers. To achieve this, they use only the best cashmere, taken from the finest hand-combed underbelly fibres of Mongolian goats.
Each strand is individually dyed to ensure intensity of every pigment, and they are tightly knit to make sure each garment keeps its shape: vital for the world-weary traveller living out of a suitcase. The V-neck pictured here has a slim fit, ideal for wearing under a jacket on a cool breezy evening, or on its own when the deck gets chillier. Effortlessly stylish, wonderfully soft, and the perfect combination of lightness and warmth: this sweater is the ultimate companion for any chic seafaring connoisseur. Jane Fulcher
