If you forget about super heroes now, with Batman and Superman, Bionic Bronco, Captain Afghanistan, or whatever, and forget magicians, nor am I talking about evil cardinals of the 17th century Vatican.
I mean like in the olden days and almost ordinary folk, like the musketeers, or how men were dressed as they wandered about a Robin Hood day market place, or simply some rough bunch pillaging offside villages in the country side, the leader would always wear a cape, wouldn’t he?
What happened? When did the cape have this falling out with man and his wardrobe?
It’s pretty convenient, a cape, isn’t it? You’re wearing your sleeping bag as you wander the fields, stroll down muddy court yards behind castle walls, or out picking poisonous mushrooms for a cocktail tio be served to the neighbor who shagged your wife.
I’d like someone to explain what exactly it is that makes women go all ooh-aah eyed over a man in a cape? Why do women find this piece of evidently girly item of clothing, so sexy and such a turn-on, when they see a man wear it, and it’s not in fashion anymore? It doesn’t make sense.
I’m thinking about calling Levi’s and present this idea of re-introducing the cape in men’s fashion. I tried once with the poncho, but it died on the drawing board. I believe in the cape. Year 2010 is the year of the cape, and my wallet will be fat with the riches this idea will bring.
I can imagine EIM sporting this without looking the fool.
