Dear SF members,
I came across Ariston 50% cashmere 50% silk fabric at a MTM tailor in Shanghai. 9 to 10oz. Full canvass and the price is 850usd.
Anybody could give me some feedback a about Ariston fabric? Is the price good?
Many thanks in advance!

The price 850usd is for a jacket.
For comparison, VBC 100% wool s110 is 450usd per jacket and s140 is about 600usd.

Haha, yes. I used Ariston home appliance before. This Ariston is a fabric merchant, which has some unique design.
