The Tartan Cape
The Scottish Clan Tartan Cape is a traditional Edinburgh Cape. This is the quintessential classic: the garment drapes around your shoulders and torso, features a buttoned closure at the neckline, and a hooded scarf is attached.
If you are looking for a way to stay chic, to stay warm, and to emulate how women have dressed for generations, then this is the cape for you. A Scottish Clan Tartan Cape is a sure way for you to show off your Scottish heritage. (We are thrilled to see the cape is making a fashion comeback on the runways since it has always been a favorite of ours.)
Wear this 100% wool Edinburgh Cape to the opera, to a historic event, or as your go-to winter outerwear. Invest in an heirloom cape custom made in the tartan colors of your choosing.
Made of 100% fine woven lightweight (10 oz) wool. Available in over 400 clan or District tartans. 38.5″ x 54″ Made to order in Scotland. Please allow 8 – 12 weeks for delivery. Dry Clean Only.
