Rain cape
This water repellent rain cape is characterised by a removable hood, and is accompanied by a long sleeved shirt made of the same material. Buttons are also made of the same fabric.
It is created by upcycling a recycled polyester shower curtain and applying a digital UV print.
+2 degrees Rome is thought as a 4-pieces collection, including two capes and two associated shirts. It is inspired by important climate change related risks for the city of Rome: floods and heatwaves. Pieces from each couple can be worn separately or together.
