An easy mid-season layer to bundle up in

This short, fluffy cape makes an effortless mid-season layer you can simply slip on when the weather calls for a little extra warmth. Made from thick alpaca-virgin wool blend fabric, it sits loosely over your outfit, with wide arm openings that leave the lower arms free. Max Mara's design is a chic alternative to a jacket between seasons.[2,3,4]

A convertible cape that becomes a poncho

The Max Mara alpaca-virgin wool blend fluffy cape features buttoning below the armholes. According to the retailer, this design lets it instantly convert into a modern, enveloping poncho, giving you two ways to wear the same piece.[2]

A cozy layer for bundling up

This Max Mara cape is designed as an easy-to-slip-on layer for wrapping up when you want extra warmth. It is made from thick, fluffy fabric, and its surface shows a dense, soft, fuzzy pile — the kind of cozy texture the retailer says you'll love to bundle up in.[2,3]
