Effortless warmth, timeless style, your perfect summer evening companion.
There is something undeniably magical about a night out at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre. The rustle of leaves overhead, the stage lit beneath the stars and the hum of London in the distance, it’s theatre, but with a wilder, more romantic edge.
But even in summer, British evenings can turn crisp once the sun dips. That’s where a beautiful cashmere wrap comes into its own, offering both style and warmth without compromising on elegance.
Are you wondering what to wear for Regent’s Park Open-Air Theatre nights? Where you are heading for Kids Weeks specialities like About The Enormous Crocodile or reminiscing in a magical revival of Brigadoon’s new adaptation by Rona Munro and Drew McOnie’s dynamic choreography, a soft layer of cashmere completes the moment. Here's a quick what to wear guide to Regent’s Park Open-Air Theatre
Why Cashmere Is Perfect for Open-Air Evenings
When you are choosing an outer layer for an outdoor performance, weight and warmth matter. Cashmere offers the ideal combination, it is lightweight enough to fold into a tote bag, an extra cushion to lean onto and soft enough to drape effortlessly over eveningwear.
Whether you are wearing a linen dress, silk trousers or classic denim, a cashmere wrap or a cashmere scarf adds a refined finish without bulk or fuss.
Wrap your shoulders in the playful charm of our Orchid Pink Classic Cashmere Pashmina, ideal for matinee performances with the family. Or, for evening shows filled with music and nostalgia, the Plum Purple Cashmere Pashmina or Midnight Blue Ultra Fine Cashmere Wrap offer rich, romantic tones that match the atmosphere of open-air storytelling under the stars.
From whimsical afternoons to dramatic nights, Signature Cashmere keeps you beautifully layered in every act of summer.
A Pop of Colour for Parkside Picnics
Start the evening with a picnic in the park before the performance? Our Daffodil Yellow Classic Pashmina is made for golden hour moments. Its joyful hue lifts neutrals and complements florals alike, perfect for adding vibrancy to any outfit while keeping the chill at bay.
Neutral Elegance That Goes With Everything
For a more timeless palette, opt for the Tapioca Cream Ring Pashmina. Light, airy and endlessly versatile, it is ideal for both low key outfits with a side of cider and chips and for more dress up viewings that involve bubbles and a goat’s cheese tart beneath festoon lights and evening birdsong.
This wrap transitions beautifully from garden picnics to after-dark drama, pair with a silk slip or a soft knit dress for effortless cool-weather charm.
When the Stars Come Out
As twilight settles in and the first act begins, you will be glad you brought something to cocoon yourself in. Our Classic Cashmere Pashmina Collection is designed with exactly this kind of evening in mind, elegant, insulating and beautifully made to last for seasons to come.
