It’s time to find that perfect cashmere garment to embrace winter in ultimate softness. Known as the Rolls-Royce of wool, cashmere comes courtesy of the delicate goats of Mongolia and is a true luxury must-have for any wardrobe. Whether it’s for warmth, style, or timeless appeal, every fashion lover should own at least one exceptional piece. The Do It Team has scouted some superb labels where quality, vibrancy, and eco-responsibility reign supreme. Here’s a roundup of the finest brands offering the perfect cashmere sweater without breaking the bank.

This is the comfy and sustainable gem we've been dreaming of. Nestled in a charming little boutique on Place de Furstenberg in the 6th arrondissement, Linnea Lund offers semi-tailored cozy pieces of the same quality as those of high-end designers. No wonder—Charlotte Björklund, obsessed with traceability, ensures her knits are made on-demand by an Italian spinner (also supplying luxury houses) using fair-trade Mongolian goat wool, before being crafted at a knitting house just 15 km away. In short, sublime knits with a super low carbon footprint.

Our favorites: Stick to the classics with monochrome models cut as finely as Chanel’s: beanie (€95), balaclava (€245), sleeveless sweater, hoodie, turtleneck, poncho, short cardigan (€345), and numerous iconic colors. But the brand's specialty is couture-like colors... The spinner sends available threads with the season's colors ordered by big houses to the boutique. Choose your cut and color, and the piece is tailor-made at the same price—so chic!

Linnea Lund, 7 Place de Furstenberg, Paris 6th. Open Tuesday to Saturday, 11 am to 7 pm. Shop the entire collection online.

The space retains its raw, immaculate decor, now infused with the soul of old stones and touches of greenery.

Our favorites: Everyone can find happiness here, from vibrant oversized sweaters (€115) to a demure cardigan with golden buttons (€185), fluffy turtlenecks (€365), ultra-elegant wool trousers (€185), or hypnotic fuchsia long mittens (€65).
