Description

A spectacular vintage Australian-made cape by House of Capes, Melbourne.

This gorgeous pure wool vintage cape is a wonderful example of classic Australian cape-making, with a dramatic, elegant silhouette that looks fabulous worn traditionally over the shoulders or with the generous draped collar pulled up as a hood.

The rich red wool gives this cape real presence, while the beautifully designed draped collar creates a soft, flowing effect around the shoulders. It is fully lined and beautifully constructed, with long flowing panels and practical arm openings allowing it to be worn comfortably while keeping the hands free.

The cape has a wonderful vintage theatrical quality and would be equally at home as vintage fashion, period costume, Little Red Riding Hood, Victorian/Edwardian-inspired styling, theatrical performance, film, photography or a dramatic winter statement piece.
