Cavalcade is delighted to bring you a new presentation- A Century of Capes, Cloaks and Coats1860 – 1970.

Coats, capes and cloaks have a rich history, from the practical to the opulent.  These garments have not only protected us from the elements but have also made bold statements about status, style, and identity.

Using original items from the Cavalcade Collection, we will take a journey from the mid-Victorian era through the decades to the anything goes 1970s.
