Description
Gorgeous black Victorian knee length capeFabric is ribbed - but I'm not sure what it is
High neck is trimmed in feathers
At the neck and down both the front and back is an ornate corded/braided pattern
The shoulders are puffed
It is lined only down the front, down the back around the neck and shoulder area - the lining is disintegrating around the hook and eye fasteners down the front
It's hard to measure since it is a cape, but it measures approximately 44" around the chest area but that includes the arms.
It is about 16" from tip of sleeve to tip of sleeve
And 40" from shoulder seam to hem
Some color is worn from the cording
This is from my family - I used to wear it for dressy occasions
I once wore it to the King Cole Room at the St. Regis in New York and the whole place turned to look at me.
I would estimate it will fit best from about an 8 to a 10.
It is over 100 years old and is not perfect - but wonderful
If I were younger and keeping it, I would have it re-lined and would dye the braid
