Here are some examples of 1/2 circle cloaks that we have made in the past.  Click on any thumbnail to see a larger version (which will open in its own window).

What's the difference between 1/2 and 3/4 circle?  Think of a cloak as a giant piece of fabric.  If you were to lay this fabric on the floor, completely spread out, a 1/2 circle cloak would form half of a circle.  For a 3/4 circle cloak, it would form, naturally enough, three-quarters of a circle.

A 1/2 circle cloak doesn't have enough fabric to completely close on most people, allowing what you're wearing underneath to be seen as you walk or if you stand with your hands on your hips, for example.

A 3/4 circle cloak is full enough to appear closed nearly all the time.  It billows as you walk, surrounding you with a volume of material that you can almost lose yourself in.  If you want people to see your costume underneath, you'll probably need to hold the cloak open -- it's that full.
