A cape may be an addition to a cool-weather closet that gives a casual look to something dressy, while adding style and comfort to a casual outfit. When you think about the question “How do I choose the right size and style of shearling lamb cape?”, you need to pay attention to the fit, length, layering requirements and details that fit your lifestyle.
Always start by making sure to check the garment dimensions and size guide, not just the garment size labels. Some capes have a one size silhouette, some have a more structured silhouette. Ensure the cape fits snug but still leaves room for a sweater or light jacket under it, and doesn’t impair ability to move.
The length also has an impact on the overall look. A shorter capelet can appear contemporary and fit with tweaked jeans or dresses, a longer cape will give more coverage and give a flowing look. Neutrals like black, camel, navy and cream are easy to coordinate with the winter must haves.
Learn about material type, lining, closures and care. These elements have an impact on comfort, usability and maintenance. For many delicate outerwear items, it’s worth checking the care label before selecting a garment, as these items will need special care to be cleaned professionally.
