Akris Cashmere & Silk Rib Funnel Neck Sweater
Overview
Akris’s Cashmere & Silk Rib Funnel Neck Sweater is a refined luxury knit for those who prioritize next-to-skin comfort and a streamlined silhouette. The silk-softened yarn—70% cashmere, 30% silk—delivers a smooth, breathable fabric that feels lightweight while providing moderate insulation. Ribbed construction and a fitted cut trace the body from a high funnel neck down through long sleeves to the hips, creating a tailored look that layers neatly under jackets or stands alone with skirts or trousers. The funnel neck offers added warmth without bulk, and the silk content adds sheen and drape. Made in Romania and finished for dry-clean care, it’s suited to professionals, frequent travelers, and anyone building a timeless capsule wardrobe seeking an elevated, versatile sweater.
