The Splash's Cape: How to Make a Super Hero Cape

@The_Splash requested that I make a video on super hero capes. This is a very simple version of the cape, a garment that has been reworked and re-imagined since the beginning of clothes. I hope you have fun making one!

P.S.- I filmed this by myself with the camera and remote- sorry if some of the shots are a little off!

Posha666- Those are all great suggestions for the cape! We were trying to give the simplest explanation for how to make a cape. Velcro and other closures are definitely an option.

Let us know if you make a cape and what sort of features you include to make it perfect for your special occasion!

You've got an awesome personality it seems to be doing tutorials like this, thanks for making it entertaining to actually sit through. This was very helpful!

I'm not an expert but don't you think the design of the neck cord is a little hazardous? It should be some kind of break away connector like a magnetic snap or a weak button or a very SMALL bit of velcro? (In case the cape is caught on something you don't wan to strangle your customer.)

Also, just as a design what stops all the fabric from simply hanging down your back in a clump since it can slide on the cord?
