If I sort my inspo folder by date I definitely went through a cape phase. It helps to be Asian

The only masculine fits of it working well are either Western look or draped overcoat. There's also a fair amount of capes or capelike silhouettes in techwear if that's your thing

females have more leeway but I'd argue what's attractive about a cape isn't the functionality or exact form but rather the drapey silhouette it gives. So if you buy that then you have lots of options and fits with a draped overcoat

We've all seen the western inspo shots. Clint Eastwood in the good the bad and the fa. I think this fit is very hard to pull off without looking cosplay.

I posted many capes under a supervillain inspiration thread a while back. I'm not going to dump anything else. I think large cardigans (eg cocoon knits), shawls, draped blazers, and even Eastern European and Turkish style Scarves are accessible, wearable, versions of the cape. I also hold that techwear has some interesting cape designs, and with its current future western vibe (which dominates the new acronym releases) we will be seeing more.

I actually think it looks good. Not ironically, not in a -core look. Cloaks can look fucking boss. Of course not if you pair em with Supreme and Jordans. And they're functional in autumn / winter seasons.

No that is really his aesthetic. Catch him on the Outlier Insta stories + look at the silhouettes they produce. If it helps pretend the guy in the the original picture is wearing a fuck it blanket cost 700$, has an ultra fine ramie weave for wear on hot summer days, and secure ratcheting closure system so it'd never fall off you in your sleep

Please see my arguments enumerated here >>13578046 on cape aesthetics. Fashion evolves and the modern cape is defined by drape and silhouette. You can quibble over definitions but you're invested in the thread enough to save it from page 14. I do agree on the trump fits, especially the first one.
