Research has shown that shoppers who purchase garments in a luxury material, such as cashmere or angora, are likely to purchase garments in more than one other luxury materials, as well  A recent livestock disease has significantly reduced the amount of cashmere available on the market  This, in turn, has driven up the prices of the cashmere products still available for purchase
We can ttherefore conclude that more people will be buying angora items of clothing this year than they did in previous years
In a recent study, shoppers who had recently purchased a garment in a luxury material cited similar reasons for buying angora as buying cashmere.
