Believe It or Knit

LisaT Summer Cashmere Collection

Symptoms: Patient is tired of layering and having difficulty maintaining optimum temperature.

Cause: Unpredictable midseason weather combined with extreme indoor and outdoor conditions.

Cure: The summer cashmere collection from LisaT. The lightweight knits are made from fine-gauge Italian cashmere — perfect for keeping warm during an English summer but light enough not to weigh you down in central heating (or unexpected bursts of sunshine).

A Central Saint Martins graduate, the designer pushes boundaries in technical construction, so expect interesting silhouettes in the form of belted trench coats; ribbed, bell-sleeve cardigans; cropped jackets; and plenty of ruffles, pleats and folds.

Doctor’s Note: The look could be contagious.

Available at Harrods, 87-135 Brompton Road, SW1X 7XL (020 7730 1234 or harrods.com). To see styles, go to lisat-cashmere.com.
