While not all superheroes wear capes, plenty of fashion girls do. And when it comes to curating a timeless transitional wardrobe for those in-between seasons where the weather is just too unpredictable to gauge, few pieces have proven to be more versatile than a classic cape or poncho. The relaxed styles boast a wraparound design that gives users the freedom to cosy up in a snug, button-down look for those chillier winter nights, or simply leave it draped around the shoulders for an open and breezy daytime look.

Capes and ponchos are already everywhere this season, too — from the wardrobes of fashionistas and trend forecasters to the runways in New York (including that iconic silver metallic Balenciaga dress and cape combo that Serena Williams donned on the Vogue WORLD runway), the styles are seeing a major resurgence this fall that's predicted to continue on well into the winter and spring seasons, too.

If you're interested in adding one of these timeless staples to your wardrobe this season, you've come to the right place! We went ahead and did all of the background research for you — scouring the internet in search of the top-rated styles, browsing our favourite fashion brands, and ultimately rounding up a few of the best capes and ponchos that are perfect for wearing all season long. From breezy cape jackets to cosy, wool ponchos and more, shop our picks ahead!
