Rachel Aroesti, The Guardian, 26th October 2021Putting the 'cape' into capers
The cape, not to be confused with its longer length kin, the cloak, is a versatile item of comedy clothing with a long and storied history. Depictions of cape-wearers go back as far as 300 BC to the nomadic Pazyryk culture of Kazakhstan and Mongolia. The blue, geometric designs of the capes characteristically worn by Aztek kings were made with intentionally laborious dyeing techniques to create a symbol akin to the difficulty in forging a great katana in feudal Japan. And most famously and popularly, the cape is a powerful symbol associated with 20th century superheroism. British comedy, perhaps unsurprisingly, has made use of the myriad cape tropes for its own hilarious ends, but not as frequently as one may imagine for such a popular device.
