Authentic cape worn over the shoulders. Measures 20 inches long in the front and 20 inches in the back. The netting at the top is in nice condition -it has some bead work. The red lining is in very nice condition. The top is in nice condition, but it does have some minor flaws. There are seven tiny holes in the back where the red lining shows through, and the front does have a couple of areas where the material has separated, however, it is not noticeable until you pull on the material. Not sure what the black material is, but it does have a design which doesn't really show in the pictures. Fastens with a hook and eye. There are folds in the cape from storage. Can still be worn or displayed nicely. Please ask if you have any questions.
