There’s a nip in the air and it’s time to bundle up. Capes and ponchos are an easy and elegant way to stay cozy and look up-to-the-minute fashionable. Channel your alter ego with wraps inspired by classic films. Think The Good, the Bad and the Ugly; Sherlock Holmes; Love Story; Doctor Zhivago; and Batman.

Go sleuthing a la Sherlock Holmes in a plaid cape lined with leather from J. McLaughlin.

Julie Cavileri in Love Story might have chosen Burberry’s mega check for a romantic winter picnic.

Julie Christie’s Lara in Doctor Zhivago could have donned Sofia Cashmere’s swoon-worthy Prussian blue wrap with dyed Finnish fox fur to stay elegantly warm on icy Russian nights.

For a night out on the town, this graphic-printed hooded poncho from Chloé with fringe detail makes a bold statement that would make Clint Eastwood proud.

A classic black Armani wool and cashmere wrap gains mystery with goat-leather fringe.
