Circa: 1920/1930
Manufacturer: T. A. Chapman Co., Milwaukee, WI
Magnificent! This vintage 1920's Flapper Evening cape is one of a kind. I've never seen anything like it and don't expect to see one again. I feel priviledged just to have owned it. Sold at the T.A.Chapman store in Milwaukee, Wis., this beauty must have graced the opera house and wowed the audience.
The art deco design in red, gold, black, and orange flows 26 inches from the cape's neckline. The cape measures 50 inches from the neckline to the hem. A fabulous 14 1/2 inch wide collar is lined in a rich black velveteen material. The deco lame' is done in a great art deco pattern.
The arm holes are edged in the black velveteen and are 14 inches long.
The bottom portion of the cape is silk velvet, I believe. It is very soft. The entire cape is lined in a black satin material. I couldn't get a good picture of the lining but it follows the cut of the cape. The cape closes with a black cord frog.
There is some damage to the cape. The lame does have some shattering in 3 spots that I can see. The collar velveteen has given way at the seam but should be an easy fix. Even with the collar up, you can't see it.
If you need more pictures or more description, please let us know. This is a great collector's piece. |
