Building Cashmere Luxury, Intentionally
Naked Cashmere was founded on the belief that true luxury is quiet, considered, and deeply felt.
We work with one of the world's most noble fibers - Grade-A cashmere from Inner Mongolia - prized for its rarity, softness, and longevity. But the material is only the beginning. What matters just as much is how pieces are made, why they exist, and whether they deserve to last.
We create modern heirlooms: pieces designed to live close to the body and remain relevant over time. Luxury, for us, is not about excess. It's about intention.
That belief shows up everywhere - from sourcing and product development to how we build teams and make decisions. We focus on doing fewer things well, with care, clarity, and long-term thinking at the center of the brand.
