Magaschoni quality?

annagybe

I have a random credit on Belle & Clive, Bluefly's not-so-good sample sale site.
They're having a sale on Magaschoni cashmere. Is it any good?

Can you do a general search on it and see if any reviews turn up? Maybe check the high-end stores for reviews? Do they allow returns? If not, I'd be tempted to wait till there are names you're more familiar with.....

I've no idea, Anna, but I'm bumping this for you.

I have two Magaschoni cashmeres, Anna, and they're both nice. One is a non-form-fitting cardigan, and one is a pullover. The pullover is both slim and somewhat short in the body -- good for skirts.

My issue with cashmere in recent years has been buying it, wearing it once, and having moth holes appear after the first gentle laundering (suggesting that the damage was hiding there before I bought.) This has not happened with the Magaschoni sweaters, nor with my Ann Taylor cashmere.

I realize that "no holes after the first washing" is setting the bar pretty low, but I had almost given up on cashmere for this reason. Was willing to risk it again because the Magaschoni has held up so well.
