Cloaks are stupid. You might as well bring back top hats and knickerbockers.

I may need knickerbockers with the way my legs getting swole. Tophats are not functional, but fedoras are at the point of going out, so I wouldn't rule tophats out as the next dumb fad.

I'm a professional costumer/seamstress so I've made several cloaks, and in general I find them them elegant and aesthetically interesting on stage/screen.

But why anyone would actually want to walk down the street in a blanket with a hood is beyond me. They are essentially a less functional snuggie.

While we're at it, why can we only wear mortarboards during graduations? I want a nice felt or leather mortarboard to wear daily.

No way, I think even high school drop outs should be able to wear some sweet mortarboards.

You have to admit, it'd at least be better than the baseball caps with the stickers still on them.
