From Hollywood to Bollywood, cape jackets are the new summer sensation. They are comfortable yet stylish, making them a must have wardrobe piece this season.
The cape effect looks chic on western formals (with embroidered work)- a great fusion look. But then, don’t limit capes to one kind of outfit. They can be paired with almost anything. A simple cape paired with flared skirts can transform your look. Cape skirts look elegant and royal- a different take on veils.
Indian designers, not to be left behind, have created some beautiful ensembles of capes with suits and saris. The cape sari is not quite popular yet, but will be soon. The cape effect can also be used with lehengas. These capes are detachable, so when the trend is outdated, the outfit can still be worn.Cape lehngas look great in pastel shades.
Capes need not be of floor-length. Short capes can look very classy.
Footwear- matching classy pencil heels.
Purse- clutches embellished with swarovski.
Makeup- eye shadow that matches your outfit with dark lipstick.
Hairstyle- high up-do.
Jewelry- only earrings in long style.
