Quince's latest cashmere collection features a selection of elevated knitwear essentials that combine premium materials with accessible pricing. Designed for everyday versatility, the assortment includes classic sweaters, relaxed silhouettes and lightweight layering pieces for women's and men's wardrobes.
The collection spotlights 100% Grade-A Mongolian cashmere, known for its fine, soft fibres and natural insulating properties. Over the past two years, Quince has also refined its signature cashmere construction to create thicker, more substantial knits with improved durability while maintaining the lightweight comfort and breathability associated with the material.
Women's highlights include the Mongolian Cashmere Fisherman Crewneck Sweater ($140 CAD), featuring a textured knit, and the Shrunken Cable Crewneck Sweater ($125 CAD), which offers a more fitted interpretation of traditional cable-knit styling. The assortment also includes an Oversized V-Neck Sweater ($165 CAD) for relaxed layering and a Cashmere Tee ($70 CAD) designed for transitional dressing.
The men's collection features similarly versatile options, including a classic Crewneck Sweater ($85 CAD), Cardigan Sweater ($140 CAD), Quarter Zip Sweater ($129.90 CAD) and Poloneck Sweater ($140 CAD). Together, the pieces offer different approaches to incorporating cashmere into casual, professional and cold-weather wardrobes. The collection is now available.
