N. Peal: cashmere knitwear - the Spectre of luxury isn't just for James Bond

N. Peal's knitwear has received much coverage for the part it plays in the new James Bond Film, Spectre. Whatever you think of this (and I love the association) it can only emphasise the brand's position as a supplier of exceptional quality knitwear. Their Burlington Arcade shop, off London's Piccadilly, opened in 1936 and is still there. Its products have been worn by many famous names, real and fictional. The cashmere comes from the steppes of Mongolia where the climactic conditions in which the goats live produce a product of extreme softness, warmth and luxury.

The Fumo grey Mongolian cashmere roll neck (below) is one of the most desirable jumpers I've ever worn. Supremely soft, warm and lightweight yet luxurious, it was designed specifically for Daniel Craig as James Bond in Spectre.

The charcoal mock turtle neck sweater which I wear in the image at the top of this post (and also below with Daniel Craig in my version of the Spectre film poster) is a blend of cashmere and silk worsted yarn. Lightweight, soft and warm, this is a sweater for a man of action. Wear it under a blazer or tweed coat.

Finally, the N. Peal round neck one-ply cashmere sweater in Blue Wave, as worn by James Bond in the previous film, Skyfall. It's crafted from the finest 100% Mongolian Cashmere.
