Per Una Teal Open Weave Fringe Cape 'VIP'
There is a whimsical, bohemian spirit to this piece from the early 2000s. Created by Per Una for their 'Due' collection, it captures the turn-of-the-millennium's love for tactile, expressive knitwear. The loose, open-weave structure features a complex interplay of teal, seafoam, and soft violet threads that create depth and visual interest.
The silhouette is effortless and distinctive. Designed as a cropped poncho or capelet, it features a wide boat neckline and an asymmetric hem finished with long, playful fringing that dances with every movement. This shape is particularly flattering if you are smaller on top, as the volume and texture add presence to the shoulders and bust while the cropped length highlights the waist.
Style it layered over a fitted merino and denim for a textural weekend look. Alternatively, drape it over a silk slip dress to embrace the full boho-chic aesthetic. This is a joyful, versatile layer that adds instant character to any outfit.
