While a classic woolen coat is a must-have of every wardrobe, a cape cannot boast of such constancy and popularity. But its time has finally come! This fall, capes are on the crest of a fashion wave and have every chance of becoming a great alternative to a parka or coat. Besides, you can wear them as you like: both with high boots and short skirts and with long dresses, wide trousers or your favorite pair of jeans.

This season, almost every luxury brand has presented an exhaustive range of capes: from Max Mara baggy little-red-riding-hood black cape to Balmain maxi Greek-goddess ones. The variety of used fabrics and colors is no less diverse than silhouettes. If you're a fan of sport-chic, choose the nylon cape that is the perfect option for rainy fall days, or the wool one with fringe - it's a double-back shot since fringe is one of the fall 2020 biggest trends as well.

As for the choice of color, everything is simple here. Take a closer look at the beige, gray, and black colors if your heart is in the ageless classics. But if you are overcome by the fall blues, we suggest fighting it with the help of bright capes like Thom Browne red one. Capes with prints, patterns, and brands' logos will work too!
