The Short Cape Costume

This gentle wizard character appears at an angle, wearing a simple costume consisting of a short cape and a wide-brimmed hat. The pleasant expression highlights clear facial features on the smiling character.

Practical Purpose of Short Capes

Short capes, historically known as shoulder capes or shoulder cloaks, were designed to shield the upper body from wind and rain while leaving the arms entirely free for movement. Travelers and scholars preferred wide-brimmed hats because the broad brim kept rain off the face and provided shade during long journeys.
