Avant Toi Hand-Painted Laminated Cashmere Crewneck Sweater in Nero
Avant Toi Hand-Painted Laminated Cashmere Crewneck Sweater in Nero
Crafted in Italy from pure cashmere, this crewneck sweater is individually hand painted in Nero and finished with irregular laminated detailing. The contrasting silver-toned surface treatment creates an abstract, weathered effect across the black knit, catching the light without appearing uniformly metallic.
The streamlined silhouette is balanced by long sleeves and ribbed trims, while subtly distressed edges at the neckline, cuffs, and hem lend the piece its characteristic time-worn finish. Style with fluid black separates for a tonal look or pair with denim and tailored trousers to emphasise the textural surface.
