Trend Alert: Cloaked in Fur…The Fur Cape
The cape in the fashion world has always created an air of drama, mystery and intrigue. Defined as a loose garment worn over one’s clothes to shield from the cold or rain, the cloak, or cape as we commonly refer to it, is one of the most versatile and wearable of garments and a great year-round wardrobe staple. Forgiving in its loose-fitting swing silhouette, the cape is a favorite because it flatters most body types and leaves a little something to the imagination. Fashionistas everywhere are layering up with this versatile, fun fashion staple and getting cloaked in fur for winter 2015.
One of the hottest fashion accessories of the season is the Burberry oversized monogrammed scarf/ cape
