I consider it still as an interesting fashion - item : they can also be stylish and elegant. But I doubt.
I only know you can dress up with it in a
classical way, you know, with the
tuxedo for the opera.
Ofcourse you draw attention with it, but it do not has to be always negative.
It can be appreciation as well for the fact you dare to make a fashion - statement.
For the classical way of dressing I have personally no fear.
But why buying a cape if you can only use them three times a year : the opera, the new yearsparty and may be the christmasservice in the church ? There are
expensive after all if you buy
a high quality cape.
I posed the question to have feedback on this :
is there a more common use possible of the cape for men?
Inspired by the experiments European Fashion Houses for this Fall and Winter.
Not to go back to the past or to re - introduce it
the way it was.
That will be too much "out of date" I think.
It is to do something
new with it and go forward.
Innovating.
Mission impossible ? I am doubting. May be yes. May be no.
More investigating if it is possible to have it integrated in a more
casual way of dressing in cold weather times
without settling the impression that you are not living in this modern time.
But there are hardly examples to find on the internet and I am not expert enough to imagine with which fashion accessoires you have to combine it for a more contemporary look.
This requires fashion expertise I do not have.
That is why I asking you. With thanks already for the feedback.
