We stumbled upon this gorgeous wool cape in Nashville, owned by Nancy Lee Andrews, photographer and fiancee of Ringo Starr. Nancy shared that Ringo purchased this cape for her in Monte Carlo in 1970. Well made, Thoughtful lines, running vertically from the front and horizontally from the back. Stay warm or just incognito with large tasseled hood. This is a rock n roll treasure and your chance to own the iconic vintage cape of luxury.
