Cashmere: Ideal for Smart Working

Working from home is increasingly common for many professions. This phenomenon has seen considerable growth during the pandemic and has even led to the emergence of new terminology to describe it. The words used to designate it in Italian are smart working, which indeed mean agile work/work from home. These simple English terms are easy to remember, but they are uniquely Italian in their specificity, as in English-speaking countries, expressions like home working, working from home, or remote working are used.

What’s certain is that to work from home, it’s essential to dress appropriately, combining style and comfort, because while it’s true that you’re within your home walls, it’s equally valid that you’re in an office. Moreover, video calls have now become an indispensable tool, and looking impeccable is crucial, just as it is in in-person work.

Cashmere is ideal for smart working, as it manages to combine all these needs in a single fabric, in the name of harmony, comfort, and refinement. This is thanks to its preciousness and a history in terms of yarns that is ancient yet modern, as it never goes out of style. 1stAmerican offers it in the name of quality and accessibility, even from a price point of view: cashmere, due to an elaborate production that requires shearing about two hircus goats to produce one sweater, can be considerably expensive.

1stAmerican’s cashmere garments, with their softness and refined, classic, and even slightly sporty style, as fashion has dictated in recent years, are a solution capable of making everyone feel comfortable during smart working hours and providing that extra serenity that working from home necessarily requires.

1stAmerican’s 100% Cashmere Sweater: Perfect for the Woman Working from Home

The quintessential garment made from cashmere? The sweater! The reason is simple: cashmere is a warm fabric, capable of being in direct contact with the skin without causing, unlike other wools, any sensation of itching or redness. It’s a certainty for everyone, including those with sensitive and delicate skin, for whom the search for ad hoc solutions is not only important but even necessary from this point of view.

1stAmerican offers cashmere sweaters for women in various models, including those in 100% cashmere, perfect for working from home and capable of adding an extra touch to personal style. Let’s look at them in detail:

• Crew Neck Sweaters. A model with basic lines, thin to the touch but no less warming on cold winter days. Cashmere, being by nature an excellent thermoregulator, can adapt to different situations, which is why you can use the crew neck sweater, as well as all the other 100% cashmere items offered by 1stAmerican, in mid-seasons and even during summer mountain vacations. A true indulgence for those who spend many hours at the computer, available in classic shades of beige and gray, as well as in brighter tones of royal blue, burgundy, and cherry.

• V-Neck Sweaters. For those who want to have their neck with a greater sense of freedom, the V-neck sweater from 1stAmerican is undoubtedly an option not to be underestimated. The model is similar to the crew neck, only the neckline changes, being slightly deeper. The line is soft and perfectly matches a woman’s figure. The extra style note? A necklace with a simple line; 1stAmerican offers it in various solutions centered around pearls, refined and at the same time contemporary. Perfect even for hours outside of work.

• Turtleneck Sweaters. The turtleneck sweater is characterized by its high neck, a solution often considered “risky” by many women but absolutely not to be underestimated when a material like cashmere is used. While it’s true that the fabric is in close contact with the neck and particularly delicate skin, it’s equally valid to think that cashmere is a material that lends itself perfectly to this, given its softness, smooth surface, and lack of imperfections. An elegant and at the same time warm sweater like no other.

• Cardigans. The 100% cashmere cardigan from 1stAmerican is a more sporty sweater but no less chic than the previous ones. Equipped with a zip and hood, it’s perfect not only for leisure time and a walk in nature but also for smart working. A multitasking sweater just like women, capable of accompanying with style during all moments of the day and always looking impeccable.

The 100% cashmere sweater is a true certainty for the woman working from home, but also for the university student who spends several hours at the desk and follows distance learning lessons. A calling card capable of always making a good impression.

How to Pair the 100% Cashmere Sweater

The cashmere sweater pairs perfectly with multiple garments. A classic pairing is with jeans, which have come back into fashion in recent collections, especially in flared models that nod to the Seventies, and in high-waisted styles, both comfortable for smart working.

The cashmere sweater goes perfectly with fabrics like velvet or check, which enhance with their refined simplicity, giving the complexion all the natural luminosity that cashmere brings with it from its origins. For online video calls, you can add a coordinated jacket over the sweater, or a necklace and even a brooch: style details capable of giving that extra refined allure.

But the true ideal complement for 1stAmerican’s 100% cashmere sweaters are undoubtedly the 100% pure cashmere pants made by the brand according to the iconic style and preciousness of Made in Italy. If you think too much cashmere might be excessive, we’ll prove you wrong right away. The fabric is elegant, simple, able to give grace and softness, with its total comfort, to the silhouette and looks good at any age. Women feel at ease in smart working and it will almost seem like wearing a tracksuit, only decidedly more refined and original.

Perfect pants even for an event or an outing with friends, which is why you can wear them outside of smart working hours, always looking impeccable. You’ll just need to wear the right shoes, from a nice pair of sneakers to loafers, including the trendy platform ones this year, or ankle boots with heels. A tone-on-tone or coordinated bag and coat, and the result is guaranteed.

Cashmere: a Sweater Capable of Expressing a Man’s Personality, Even in Smart Working

For men, dressing with style is as important as it is for women, and not just in modern times. What’s better than a warm sweater for working from home at the computer without giving up on always being well-dressed, even for an unexpected call or commitment? 1stAmerican’s cashmere sweater makes him feel at his absolute best, giving him that extra confidence that yes, even an experienced manager sometimes finds hard to achieve.

Cashmere is a fabric that blends strength and harmony, where the soft surface shouldn’t deceive you. It’s a material that requires little care and can withstand intense wear, accompanying a person throughout their life. A reliable choice for those days when the question “what should I wear today?” comes to mind.

1stAmerican offers 100% cashmere solutions in various styles. The sweaters are available in three variations: crew neck, V-neck, and turtleneck. The choice depends on the man’s style and how much neck exposure is desired. The crew neck 100% cashmere sweater can be worn without a shirt, while a shirt is essential for a more elegant look with the V-neck sweater; if you’re unsure about which color shirt to wear, the classic white shirt won’t disappoint.

The style of both pieces is classic yet vibrant, thanks to the multiple color options available, from green to bright blue to burgundy, alongside the ever-present grays, blues, and even black: everyone can find the shades that best define their personality.

Particularly intriguing is the 100% cashmere turtleneck by 1stAmerican, which, like the women’s model, stylishly (and safely) protects one of the most sensitive areas during the cold season: the neck and throat. A sweater that has become a must-have for many designers, which 1stAmerican offers in shades like aviation blue, charcoal, light gray, navy, and black, capable of giving a refined yet sporty air to the working man while ensuring absolute comfort.

The other 100% cashmere solutions for men that can be found among 1stAmerican’s offerings include:

• Half-Zip Pullover. A more casual sweater, thanks to the half-zip, and roomy in the chest area, available in cream and orange shades. It provides unmatched freedom of movement in the upper body and adds an original touch of style.

• Cardigan. The cardigan is often underrated in men’s fashion but is actually a sophisticated and versatile solution. It can be worn with a shirt or a simple t-shirt and always look elegant. The quality of cashmere adds that extra appeal that’s the perfect mix of taste, comfort, and even professionalism. A particularly suitable solution for men working from home.

• Vest. The 100% cashmere vest by 1stAmerican is one of the symbols of office wear for men. It pairs perfectly with a shirt and even a tie. The image it projects is one of reliability, initiative, and solidity. It also looks great under a jacket and is synonymous with casual elegance. Perfect with jeans, dress pants, and corduroy, it’s available in various colors in 1stAmerican’s collection: black, gray, and navy for a more classic style; bottle green and burgundy for those wanting an extra pop of color.

• Pants. 1stAmerican’s 100% cashmere pants are the casual alternative for those who want to feel comfortable at all times, even during work hours, without giving up on elegant materials, suitable for an all-day outfit. These pants pair perfectly with crew neck sweaters, V-necks, and also with 1stAmerican’s half-zip pullover and cardigan, for a sporty yet original and refined style.
