What Are the Warmest Fabrics to Wear?
Choosing the right fabric to keep you warmest in winter can be tricky. Here are our recommendations for the warmest winter fabrics that look and feel amazing and form the foundation of our high-quality winter accessories.
Cashmere
Luxurious and soft, cashmere wool has an extra-fine weave, making it a brilliant insulator. Cashmere comes from the wool of cashmere goats and is a natural, breathable material that keeps brisk winds at bay. At Jayley, we have a fabulous range of cashmere accessories to elevate your look and keep you cosy through autumn and winter.
With the proper care, cashmere is a long-lasting, durable material that will last you for years. Visit our cashmere care guide to make the most of your garment.
Faux fur
Stay warm and fashion-forward with a clear conscience with faux fur! The tiny hairs in faux fur keep rain and snow near the garment’s surface, preventing them from seeping through and keeping you dry and warm. Its insulating properties are also perfect for staying warm in chilly weather! Faux fur accessories are a great way to dip your toes into this material for the first time.
Spruce up your outfit with a faux fur hat for a practical yet stylish statement. Easier to maintain than real fur, our faux fur care guide will tell you everything you need to know about caring for your garment.
Faux shearling
Faux shearling offers a timeless look without the hefty price tag of the real deal. Moreover, it can be warmer, softer, thicker, and easier to care for than real sheepskin. Our faux shearling accessories add a glamorous touch of texture to any winter look, whether an everyday bag or a cute hair accessory.
