Will capes or cloaks ever come into fashion again?

Imagine if someone like Kanye just randomly started wearing a cape non-ironically. Would that alone be enough to jumpstart a cape fad?

>> No.7186933

>implying capes and cloaks aren't currently fashionable

>> No.7186945

Yes it would.

I wouldn't mind having a cloak type thing if it was fucking cold as hell but they would just end up being taken over by neck beards like fedoras.

Now fedora will never be cool.

sorta capes. sorta

>> No.7186966

capes and cloaks as you imagine are far too cumbersome and without utility to ever come back into fashion except in maybe some very short version that a girl would wear

>> No.7186979

a full body cape likely won't come back anytime soon it's too ingrained in shit like fantasy
or shonen
or other garbage
it doesn't really come up anywhere either
it's not like afrikans or igloos or canadians where capes, there's no 'oh I was invoking this place' to run with
I think
don't even have like medieval, fantasy supersedes. normal capes anyways not so much regal
were capes even that popular or is that just myth

It's good if you're travelling somewhere that gets cold and you're outdoors.

It's all situational.

cloaks are so fucking warm, it can be shitty cloth and it still is warm af. when you aren't using it you just throw it behind your shoulders. they look cool as shit too imo (as long as you can pull it off ofc) I kinda want to be thirteen or live out in the wilderness so I can wear one again

I've never worn a snuggie but probly. its like when you wrap yourself in a blanket on sickdays and wear it around the house only all the time. when wind blows or if you run it flaps around and makes you feel like ur in a movie

capelets are a good alternative because they're not so dramatic and fettering

If you've learned anything from this thread op it should be that capes can be sort of cute on grills sometimes, and are no longer acceptable on men. Especially skinny, lanky, awkward as fuck, men.
