First look at Ryan McGinley and Chloe Sevigny’s videos for Uniqlo (and some of the 330 knitwear colour options)
“I guess I would wear cashmere if I wanted to feel cozy and comfortable. Cashmere always makes you feel like you’re being hugged by maybe ten people, and it also makes you feel like you’re right next to a fireplace.” So coos Ryan McGinley in soothing tones in this slightly cheesy video for Uniqlo.
Scoffing aside I must admit I’m tempted by the cut and colours of these Uniqlo men’s cashmere knits*, which are part of the silk and cashmere line and come in 330 colour options.
Do you wear Uniqlo cashmere knits? Are they as good as people say? And the 64 million dollar question, do they pill?
Uniqlo men’s cashmere V necks below, all $89.90 (currently available on the US site only)…
And here’s Chloe Sevigny doing her bit for Uniqlo womenswear…
*annoyingly only on the US site at the moment

I tend to stay away from synthetics too. And I like the jumper Ryan’s wearing in the video best – and Chloe’s hair.

I saw this and remembered your tweet ages about Acne cashmere jumpers. Hand on my heart, i would absolutely vouch for Uniqlo cashmere jumpers (or any style for that matter). I have 3 mens (for their slouchy fit) cashmere jumpers, the oldest being maybe 3 years old, and ALL 3 have no signs of pilling and remain so frigging soft. They sell out so quickly though.
