The Milan atelier returns to its essential vocabulary with a new cashmere turtleneck, cut in the oversized silhouette that has become Dušan's quiet signature. Clean, textural, and made to last a lifetime.

The Burleigh turtleneck sweater from Dušan arrives as a study in restraint. Constructed from pure cashmere, the piece exists in the colour palette that defines the house: white and moss, two hues that speak to the designer’s faith in understatement as the truest form of luxury.
What makes this sweater belong to Dušan rather than any other cashmere house is the cut itself. The silhouette is generous and loose, draped with the kind of ease that only comes from understanding how fabric moves across a body. The turtleneck sits soft and unforced; the proportions refuse to cling. This is knitwear designed for a life, not for a season.
Made in Italy by Dušan Paunovic, who founded the label in 1999, the Burleigh follows the house’s philosophy of creating garments that transition seamlessly into everyday wear. There is nothing showy about it. The luxury lies in the fibre, the craft, and the kind of tailoring that only becomes apparent when you wear it, when the weight and fluidity of pure cashmere become the thing you notice most.
Dušan sweaters are known to develop character with time, the fabric softening and settling into a personal shape. The Burleigh, in white and moss, is less a purchase than a beginning.
