1930s LACE AND MACRAMÉ CAPE

Unknown

Black macramé with technical lace panel

France, c. 1930’s

 

 

A lace panel runs along the neckline and down the center back, forming the spine of the cape. From it, two layers of black macrame extend, draping the shoulders in intricate knots that radiate outward. The interplay of lace and macramé balances delicacy with structure, creating a silhouette that shifts with the wearers movement.

 

Although bearing no label, it is certainly a couture piece, reflecting the innovative craftsmanship of 1930s Paris. A poetic form in motion, the cape embodies the era’s quiet elegance and inventive spirit.
