I recently discovered that I still have a vampire style cape ( given to me as payment by a quirky antique store owner as payment in my teens ) and what with Halloween coming around , I'm seriously considering wearing it while riding my motorcycle as a sort of " Biker Dracula " theme .
That said the question of how fashionable capes are these days in general also popped in my head , since I've literally never seen people wearing capes outside of Halloween .
Location: As of 2022….back to SoCal. OC this time!

IMO capes or anything that hangs loosely like a paper sack is a bad idea for fashion....specially if it's too long. It's like they have tried to become fashionable & I've seen a couple on the runways a couple yrs ago..BUT nobody is buying into it IMO. Tbh I wouldn't even want to wear one for Halloween.
Anyways I actually have a cloak broach type contraption that may very well keep it from getting caught in my wheels , though I doubt it's even that long , but thanks for the advice regardless .
Yes I have two capes in my closet one red with a white collar i wear at christmas time . I have a blue one that I wear in winter time . But yes they are still fashionable indeed .

Getting caught in the wheel is only one potential danger. A backdraft could also lift the cape up and blow it over your face. Motorcycle wear should always be fitted.
