1960s Pauline Trigère full-length evening cape. Crafted in luminous purple silk taffeta and finished with a sumptuous brown mink fur collar, the piece exemplifies Trigère’s signature architectural elegance and dramatic restraint.
The open-front silhouette falls fluidly from the shoulders, while precise back pleating creates movement and sculptural volume with every step. Effortless yet commanding, the cape transforms even the simplest black gown or tailored trousers into a statement entrance.
Pauline Trigère — the French-born, New York–based couturière — was celebrated for dressing society women, Hollywood icons, and First Ladies throughout the mid-20th century. Her work is distinguished by impeccable construction and timeless wearability, qualities beautifully preserved in this piece.
Styling: Layer over a sleek column dress, cocktail attire, or evening tailoring with statement earrings and pointed heels for a red-carpet silhouette.
Measurements: Shoulder length: 20” Full length: 55”
