Is this cape warm enough for winter?

It is a wool-blend cape with a full lining, so it works for cool evenings and mild winter days. The open sides and cape shape let cold air in around the arms, so it is not a substitute for a coat in freezing weather.

How does the sizing run?

It is a relaxed plus-size cut meant to layer over clothing. If you plan to wear it over bulky sweaters, take your usual size; for a closer fit over dresses, consider sizing down.

Can I machine wash it?

No. The care label calls for dry cleaning, and the faux fur trim and structured wool fabric should not go in a washer.

What do I wear under a cape?

Slim knits, turtlenecks and sheath dresses work best, since the cape already adds volume at the shoulders. Skip bulky sleeves that bunch under the raglan cut.

Is it worth the price?

It is a special-occasion piece, so value depends on how often you attend dressy events in cold weather. If you want a daily winter coat, a sleeved wool coat will serve you better.

Our take on the Plus Size Women's Faux Fur Trim Wool Cape by Jessica London

A plus-size wool cape from Jessica London with a detachable-look faux fur trim, hook-and-eye closure and full lining. It is cut mid-thigh with a curved hem and relaxed raglan sleeves, so it layers over knits and dresses without bulk at the shoulders. The fabric is heavy and stiff, which holds the cape shape but limits easy movement. Rated 3.5 out of 5 from 24 ratings, it is a statement piece rather than an everyday coat.
