gorgeous and timeless!
i love an edgy cape...the plain black ones and the capelets are my favorites!
that little white fur cape is very pretty.
I dig that "super woman" cape! xxTay
Wow. These are really cool. I hope your week has started off well. Cheers!
Fab as always :) I love how over-the-top some of these are! I adore the blugirl one.
Capes are one of my favorite womenswear garments for fall this year. There is something so elegant, glamorous and retro about them that I can't resist! My favorite is the Gaspard Yurchievich pleated cape. It is so simple and understated, but the pleating and cut make it interesting. I love the Diesel cape, the Fornarina capelet and the Marni look as well.

Capes are so cute. I should get one for fall.

Capes are great- I have black wool one for winter. Love the Mod Cloth and Baby Phat military-esque pieces and the Diesel angelic piece.
Fabulous selection as usual darling! There are some beautiful capes here. I really quite like the Baby Phat one as a wearable piece for my wardrobe.

Capes are so chic. The long black ones remind me of a gal that is off to the theatre. You know I love the vintage inspired ones!

Not your typical capes - stunning!
Love that yellow cropped cape!
So Audrey...
Yay I can bring out my white wool cape now!! My fav I hate to admit is the Baby Phat one, it's surprisingly classy.
Somehow I feel that I'd look like a walking mushroom... :) Too short for a cape, am afraid, but love your picks so much! x
Nice!!! So beautiful!! All the models looks stunning as always!!! Great post!!

Fall is in the air... and I love love these pretty capes. Been wanting one for awhile now but hadn't found one that felt right yet. I adore the Baby Phat cape, honestly not always a fan of the brand, but that cape is pretty.
Hope you're having a lovely day dear CC!!
I love the Elie Saab and Carolina Herrera's. They're both super-elegant!
Oh CC, you've got me longing for Fall :)
Heading over to read your feature now.

these are all great...capes for fall are such an awesome alternative to boring sweaters or jackets.
lovely as always :)

wow I want ALL of these!...LaCroix one is darling, but I dont know where I'd wear it.
Baby Phat truly surprised me, I had to double check that it was the brand...very nice!
LucaLuca is divine and very wearable.
Fabulous post as usual, darling!
such an emphasis on shoulders... I love it! :)
This reminds me, I have a cape (vintage and reversible) that I barely wore last year - time to pull it out again. Though I hope I didn't give it away!!
I love capes, especially the short ones..I love having free sleeves thoughit can make a shoulder bag quite tricky!!
Fab fab fab. What a way to make an entrance! I'll take the Giambattista Valli one, please.
I love capes and you've set me off now!
Would you add me to your blog list - I've not asked before!! x
I had no idea that capes could look so good.
I love that Baby Phat one and the last one. Both look great.
Capes are definitely up there on my wishlist for fall! I might just have to dust off an old wool capelet and "shop my own closet" instead. :) P.S. Thanks for linking to the interview on Dream Sequins! xx
Love them all! Can't wait for Fall!
Magnifique! Especially the black with the long red gloves.
Fantastic capes! I really like that yellow one! They're all perfect for fall.
I am searching for the perfect cape at the moment... Those are such good inspirations! I really love the Giorgio Armani one... Wow. Could I be rich please?

iv been on the look out for a cape for winter - wanted one last year but couldnt find one! loving the 2nd one xoxoxox
nice. great post
I'll take the mink cape. That's more my style than a fur vest :)
i need a cape that says 'super mom.' but if you've seen The Incredibles, you know that capes for super heros are bad...
I love capes. Remember the black one Carrie Bradshaw wore one episode? A cape paired with long gloves is so chic. I have a leopard Betsey Johnson cape I absolutely adore. I was just thinking about how much I can't wait to break it out for fall!
These capes are fun, reminds me of Harry Potter. Just kidding, I like the ones at the end, especially the tie dyed dress, gorgeous!
gorgeous capes! i <3 that blue feathery one! xxx
looooooooooove the capes....especially the shoulder ones....they make everything look so polished & smart.
I love how those women on mad men wear those fabulous oversized trenches and they kind of look like these capes!
Gah! Capes are so hard to pull off but they sure look great on the runway! Great post as always :)
Can I say I love them all?? Maybe the Saab and the Sarafpour best? How to look instantly and effortlessly chic - throw on a cape me thinks!!
Cable knit cape. LOVE. If only I didn't live in Florida.
i love the military cape, it's have tomboy and feminime elements :)
I love capes and totally need one for fall!
amazing! i love capes. they are the perfect fall item.

I love capes-so glad they are back!
I passed on a wonderful fur cape at Goodwill (of all places) recently, thinking I could never pull it off. Oh boo. Now I want it and I'm a state away and I'm sure some lucky woman has it in her closet by now...
maybe I'll get lucky again and find another one :)
I was thinking of purchasing the navy blue cape (last pic)!!
My fave capes are the ones with a belt to cinch it up!
XOXO
Oooooo I love how you've picked up on this really unique trend! I really want to try a DIY cape! xx

XOXO, My dear!
Haha, Super Woman wins :D
Peace and love!

Love Comme des Garçons, Marni and the Superwoman cape!
xoxo
Ohh woah I love so many of them, and I adore the little details that can just take it from beautiful to lustful!
My favourites are Christian Lacroix Couture, Luisa Beccaria, bluegirl, D&g just to name a few

well at least i can find solace in Mihara Yasuhiro's fall capes for men :o]......these are so chic, more like whispered elegance :o]
I LOVE CAPES! Ahhhh they look so good as skirts too.
One of my fave style! :-) Capes are the best accessories for the next season. So stylish...
XoXo
Hey bellisima, one of my fave posts. Ever. Love capes, always have. I would wear them to the supermarket.....why the hell not. And especially adore the ones by Vivenne Westwood and Diesel. Hello Diesel cape, I love you. Marry me?
Gorgeous post darl. Hope you're having a fab week ;)
I love all of 'em! Gorgeousness!
:)

the cape looks really great! :)

I've really come to love capes. Some years ago, I hated them because of my dislike for ponchos, but boy do I love capes now!
I am a sucker for capes. I bought a very nice and warm one from Express last season. I get compliments on it all the time. I will have to post it closer once the temperature starts dropping!
Mmmm I am loving those shapes, lovely coats.
Fantastic! These will help inspire some outfits for Fall...My sweet neighbour had me over a few months ago and gave me her little fur cape -- she said that she was too old to sport it the way it ought to be and that I would probably get more use out of it. I nearly fell over!
capes and long gloves... love it for fall! xo
Such a fan of capes- wonderful post.
Definitely capes this season! With capes, you have to be careful in how you wear them. If you are short and / or curvy, a short cape won't work, but a long flowy one can look amazing. I love how many different looks can be created with capes. Add the multitudes of textures, and you have a cape for just about any occasion. I personally dig the blue Marc Jacobs long-ish flowing cape, with dark blue detailing. For a more streamlined and classic look, the Elizabeth and James City number is to die for!
omg i totally want that super woman cape!! so unique! hope you have a great weekend!
I adore the second one, the Christian Lacroix one, and the last two :)
I've always loved wearing capes, more people should try them, they really are great!
xoxo
This is the post for me !! CDG <3 !!
And the superheroin in me is SO fond on capes !!
