what is the difference between a cape and a cloak?
You would think,that,as a writer and a fan of vampiric / gothi romance, that I SHOULDA know, but in all honesty, I do not.
When i asked my hubby, he laughed, actually, LAUGHED at me!
he plays role-playing games and he won’t tell me.
So,I ask you all, the many knowledgable people here in Y!A.
Laugh if u want to, but at least answer the question, please?
I have seen hooded capes and cloaks so I dont think that could be it.
What is the diff?
Ripped off from Wikipedia:
In fashionwear, the word cape usually refers to a shorter garment and cloak to a full-length version of the different types of garment, and although the two are sometimes used synonymously for full-length coverings, the shortest versions are never referred to as cloaks. The fashion cape does not cover the front to any appreciable degree. In rainwear, a cape is usually a long and roomy protective garment worn to keep one dry in the rain.
