How should I store this sweater during the summer months?

Troubleshooting
Visible pilling on the surface
Gently use a cashmere comb or fabric depiller, moving in one direction to lift and remove surface knots without pulling the yarn.
Garment losing shape
Avoid hanging the item; always store flat and ensure it is not being stretched by heavy items placed on top of it in storage.
Accidental snagging
If a thread is pulled, do not cut it. Use a needle to gently nudge the thread back through to the inside of the garment to secure it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Alaïa cashmere garment maintains its shape and softness for years to come, adhere to the following care protocols:
- Cleaning: This garment is designed for professional dry cleaning only. Do not attempt machine or hand washing, as this can felt the cashmere fibers.
- Storage: Store the sweater folded flat in a drawer or on a shelf. Avoid hanging the garment for extended periods, as the weight of the cashmere can cause the shoulders to stretch and deform.
- Anti-Pilling: Even high-quality cashmere can experience minor pilling due to friction. Use a dedicated cashmere comb or fabric shaver gently to remove surface pills.
- Compatibility: The neutral beige tone is highly compatible with dark denims, grey wool trousers, or camel-colored outerwear.
