| 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. |
