Damien Hirst Turns to Cashmere, and the Season's Knitwear Gets an Artist's Hand

Damien Hirst has designed a cashmere line with Barrie, the knitwear house. For the island, cashmere is the sweater over the shoulders on a cool January evening on the North End, the layer that comes off at dinner and goes back on for the drive home. Hirst himself treats the work as art: in his view, anything made with real care counts. Vanity Fair spoke with him in an exclusive interview about the collection.
