Cashmere

"They're polite but cool and I spend the whole time thinking about how I killed both the tributes from their district, Glimmer and Marvel, last year, and they probably knew them and might even have been their mentors."

- Katniss about Cashmere and Gloss Cashmere was the female tribute from District 1 who participated in the 75th Hunger Games and the victor of an unspecified Hunger Games.

Biography
A victor in a past Hunger Games, Cashmere was reaped along with her brother Gloss for the Third Quarter Quell. She and Gloss both won the Hunger Games in consecutive years when Katniss was younger. As a Career Tribute, Cashmere was arrogant and conceited, even though she didn't become friends or allies with Katniss, she and her brother still managed to become friends with the other tributes.

In Catching Fire, she does her interview with Caesar Flickerman and makes a speech about how she cannot stop crying when she thinks about how the residents of the Capitol must be suffering with the thought of the loss of 23 victors. Before the interview, she told Katniss that she looks ridiculous in her wedding dress. She proved to be a real threat along with her brother, Enobaria, and Brutus. She and the other three Careers in their alliance took to the Cornucopia shortly after Finnick, Mags, Katniss and Peeta make their leave, managing to kill off seven of the other tributes, which included Seeder, Cecelia, and the male morphling from District 6. The Careers then retreated to the jungle to re-group. They don't appear again until Johanna, Wiress, Beetee, Finnick, Katniss and Peeta all make their way back to the Cornucopia, when Gloss slit Wiress' throat. Katniss killed Gloss swiftly, much like with Marvel, and Cashmere died shortly afterwards when Johanna threw an axe into her chest.

In Mockingjay, Cashmere was implied to have been used by President Snow, as she was mentioned along with Finnick and Johanna as victims of prostitution.

Victims
Due to the fact that Cashmere was a Career Tribute, it is likely she killed many tributes during her original Hunger Games. It is not specified if she killed anybody during the Third Quarter Quell.

Family
Cashmere's brother, Gloss, was also a tribute in the 75th Hunger Games, as well as a victor from an earlier year. They were known to have a strong relationship, although Cashmere seemed to have control over Gloss, and they fought side by side until the very end. No other family is mentioned.

Physical description
Cashmere and her brother Gloss were both described as being classically beautiful. She was noted to have long blonde hair, cascading in curls. It is probable that she and Gloss were physically stronger than most of the other victors, being relatively young and from District 1. It should be noted that it is implied that Cashmere was a victim of prostitution by President Snow, alluding to her physical attractiveness.

It is implied that Cashmere shared a resemblance to another District 1 tribute, Glimmer, with her green eyes and flowing blonde curls, though this may be because in District 1 this is fairly common.

Portrayal
Stephanie Leigh Schlund has been cast to portray Cashmere in the upcoming film, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.

Trivia

 * Cashmere was the only District 1 tribute from the 74th & 75th Hunger Games not to be killed by Katniss, as Cashmere was killed by Johanna.
