Cape
A cape is type of
clothing, and can be used to describe any sleeveless outer garment, such as a
poncho, but usually it is a long garment that covers only the back half of the wearer, fastening about the neck. They were common in
medieval Europe, especially when combined with a
hood in the
chaperon, and have had periodic returns to
fashion, for example in
nineteenth century Europe. They remain in regular use as rain wear in various
military units and
police forces, for example in
France and the
United Kingdom. A gas cape was a voluminous military garment designed to give rain protection to someone wearing the bulky
gas masks used in
twentieth century wars. In fashionwear, the word cape usually refers to a shorter garment and
cloak to a full-length version of the different types of garment, and although the two are sometimes used synonymously for full-length coverings, the shortest versions are never referred to as cloaks. The fashion cape does not cover the front to any appreciable degree.
