Cashmere

"I'm sorry. I just can't stop crying."

- Cashmere during the victor interviews Cashmere was the female tribute from District 1 who participated in the 64th Hunger Games, in which she became the victor. Her twin brother, Gloss, won the previous Games.

75th Hunger Games
The victor of the 64th 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 a younger girl. It is implied that both Gloss and Cashmere were friends with some of the existing victors. It's additionally highly possible that either Cashmere or her brother mentored the District 1 tributes from the 74th Hunger Games: Glimmer and Marvel.

Both Cashmere and her brother, Gloss, presumably volunteer to compete in the third Quarter Quell, like the other career victors from the more wealthy districts. Katniss describes them both as "classically beautiful", and the two are implied to be significant crowd pleasers, as well as a fan favorite.

Training
During Training, Cashmere trains with her brother at the knife throwing station, where they together eliminate two targets, with only one throw. Katniss says she received a very high score after her private session with the Gamemakers. Katniss also makes hammocks with Cashmere and Gloss in the Training Center, where she describes them as polite but cool. Both siblings mingle with the other career victors and Peeta, and they presumably enlist Katniss as an ally when they see her skills with a bow and arrow.

Interview
Before the individual interviews, Cashmere insults Katniss's wedding dress, which looks rather over the top when compared to the other victor's outfitting. During her interview with Caesar Flickerman, she 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, playing up to the audience. This is her way to show how betrayed the victors feel about going back to the arena. Katniss is disgusted by Cashmere's illegitimate emotion and fake behavior, but understands when Haymitch explains to her that the tributes would do anything to stop the games. Cashmere and her brother join hands with the other twenty-two victors as a sign of rebellion following the end of the interview session, causing the crowd to go wild with discontent.

Bloodbath
Cashmere and her brother do not make it to the cornucopia in time to confront Katniss, Finnick Odair, Peeta, or Mags before they escape into the jungle. However, she and Gloss, along with Brutus and Enobaria presumably manage to kill several other victors during the bloodbath. All four career tributes manage to survive the first day without any major injuries.

Death
On the second day of the Games, the career pack manages to sneak up on the rebellion alliance now consisting of Katniss, Peeta, Finnick, Johanna Mason, Beetee, and Wiress, as they formulate a plan to avoid the various disasters around the arena and kill the other remaining victors. While Wiress is separated from the others, Gloss slits her throat, prompting Katniss to shoot him with one of her arrows. Immediately after Gloss's death, Cashmere charges at Katniss, apparently intent on killing her, but Johanna digs her axe into Cashmere's heart, killing her. Cashmere's cannon sounds instantly afterwards, and Brutus and Enobaria barely escape with their lives. Cashmere's body is thrown into the water when the cornucopia starts spinning, on the command of Plutarch Heavensbee. Cashmere placed 10th out of 24 tributes. It is unknown if she or the other careers ever figured out the arena design, nor if they were aware of the rebel alliance.

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

Victims
Due to the fact that Cashmere was a Career Tribute, it is likely she killed many tributes during her original Hunger games. During the 75th hunger games, Cashmere was presumably responsible for the deaths of several other victors during the cornucopia bloodbath.

Family
"There's the classically beautiful brother and sister from District 1 who were victors two consecutive years when I was little."

- Katniss on Gloss and Cashmere. 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 portrayed Cashmere in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
