The cape is widely flared and extremely full with a spectacular hem circumference of 8,0 meters/8.75 yards. The hemline appears slightly irregular in length and finishes approximately at calf-length. The cape closes at the front with two long satin ties. Illegible composition label (main material probably 100% wool, other materials for the velvet and satin). Unlined. Made in France.
