What look does a pleated cape create?The even folds in the fabric create a fluid, graceful silhouette that moves with you. The pleating alone can make a simple outfit look refined. Worn open, the cape acts as a long outer layer; closed, it looks almost like a dress. What does a pleated cape go with?A pleated cape sits nicely over straight-cut dresses or tunic and trouser combinations. Keeping the pieces underneath simple lets the pleats stand out, while a plain hijab in a matching tone and minimal accessories finish the look elegantly. How do you care for pleated fabric?Wash on a delicate cycle and hang to dry so the pleats keep their shape. If ironing is needed, follow the direction of the pleats at a low temperature.
