    DETAILS

    Some pieces don’t try to be the hero of your wardrobe - they simply become it. The Anna Cashmere Cardigan in Midnight Black by Vera & Josie is exactly that kind of essential.

    Crafted from 100% premium cashmere sourced from Inner Mongolia, Anna has an incredibly soft, lightweight feel that sits gently against the skin. From the moment you slip it on, it brings a sense of ease - smooth, refined, and quietly luxurious without ever feeling overdone.

    The silhouette is intentionally relaxed, designed to drape naturally and move with you throughout the day. It doesn’t cling or feel restrictive; instead, it creates an effortless shape that works with everything already in your wardrobe. A soft, round neckline keeps the look clean and minimal, while the delicate seven-button front adds a refined point of detail that feels considered rather than decorative.

    This is the cardigan you’ll wear without thinking - over denim on busy mornings, layered with tailoring for work, or buttoned up on its own when you want something simple yet elevated. It’s understated luxury at its most wearable, designed to slip seamlessly into everyday life and quietly elevate it.

    CARE

    Your Vera & Josie cashmere is designed to be worn, loved, and cherished for years to come. With gentle care, it will retain its beautifully soft handle and luxurious finish season after season.

    Hand Washing Instructions
    Hand wash gently in cool water using a delicate wool or cashmere detergent.
    Avoid rubbing, wringing, or twisting the garment.
    Carefully press out excess water without stretching the fibres.
    Lay the garment flat on a clean towel, roll gently, and press to absorb moisture.
    Reshape while damp and dry flat on a towel or drying rack.
    Dry away from direct sunlight and direct heat sources.

    Ongoing Care
    Fold rather than hang to help preserve the natural shape.
    Store with cedar or lavender to help protect delicate fibres.
    Light pilling may occur with wear due to the nature of cashmere; gently remove using a cashmere comb.
    Avoid over-washing - often a simple air between wears is enough to refresh the garment.
