Avant Toi Hand-Painted Laminated Cashmere Crewneck Sweater in Nero

Avant Toi Avant Toi Hand-Painted Laminated Cashmere Crewneck Sweater in Nero Crafted in Italy from pure cashmere, this crewneck sweater is individually hand painted in Nero and finished with irregular laminated detailing. The contrasting silver-toned surface treatment creates an abstract, weathered effect across the black knit, catching the light without appearing uniformly metallic. The streamlined silhouette is balanced by long sleeves and ribbed trims, while subtly distressed edges at the neckline, cuffs, and hem lend the piece its characteristic time-worn finish. Style with fluid black separates for a tonal look or pair with denim and tailored trousers to emphasise the textural surface.

A: A curated selection is available at Riada Concept in Woollahra, Sydney, and through the Riada Concept online store. Q: Is the silver finish part of the cashmere? A: The silver-toned effect is created through a laminated surface treatment applied over the hand-painted cashmere knit. Q: Will every sweater have the same laminated pattern? A: The overall Nero and silver appearance remains consistent, but the distribution and intensity of the finish may vary because each piece is treated by hand. Q: Are the distressed neckline and edges intentional? A: Yes. The irregular edging is a deliberate design feature and forms part of the sweater’s deconstructed, artisanal character. Q: How does this cashmere sweater fit? A: It has a close, streamlined silhouette through the body and sleeves, with ribbed trims providing light structure. Q: How should I care for this laminated cashmere sweater? A: Follow the specialist instructions on the care label and avoid rubbing, snagging, or prolonged moisture to preserve the treated surface.
