A cape in shades of forest or army green can be worn with versatility to create a number of different looks. Most obviously is perhaps as the perfect accompaniment to a modern military look; but as this pictorial shows, also doubles as a poncho borrowing inspiration from the South American gaucho. Darla Baker has just the right olive complexion and dark hair to make this shoot work.
