FAQs

What material is the Popper Detail Knit Cape made from?

The cape is made from high-quality knit wool.

How should I care for this cape?

It is recommended to hand wash with a wool-specific detergent or dry clean only. Lay flat to dry and do not bleach.

What kind of outfits can I wear this cape with?

This cape is versatile and can be worn over knit jumpers and jeans for a casual look, or over a slinky midi dress for an evening occasion.

Does the cape have a closure mechanism?

Yes, it features metallic popper button detailing at the shoulders and a clasp at the neck for closure.

What is the length of the cape?

The cape has a thigh-brushing length.

Is this cape suitable for very cold weather?

The knit wool provides warmth, but as an open-front garment, it may be best layered over other warm clothing for extreme cold. It's ideal for transitional weather or milder climates.

Troubleshooting

Cape losing shape after washing

Ensure you are hand washing with a wool-specific detergent and laying flat to dry, reshaping gently while damp. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.

Popper buttons are difficult to fasten/unfasten

Gently try to align the popper parts before fastening. If a button is stiff, try applying a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the contact points. Do not force the buttons.

Pilling on the knit fabric

Pilling is a natural occurrence with wool knits. Use a fabric shaver or a fine-tooth comb specifically designed for wool to gently remove pills. Avoid excessive friction on the fabric.
