Cape dresses have already become a celebrity favorite as red carpets are bringing the boldest innovations in fashion this season.

The return of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/best-red-carpet-couple-moments-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener">red carpets</a> has filled celebrity calendars with numerous big events, and celebrities are bringing forward the most dazzling party looks yet. Far beyond the classic and minimalist silhouettes, this season's biggest stars have been innovative in their ensembles and bringing one of the most powerful trends of the moment&mdash;dresses with capes.
 Appearing both in single pieces and overlays, this is the detail that makes all the difference in the final look. The trend is also able to adapt well to different styles of dress, from the most daring sparkles and applications to even the light and uncomplicated models.&nbsp; 
 The covers are able to transform the silhouette, making the look even more elaborate with movement and sophistication. It's no surprise that this has recently become a favorite among celebrities to create unforgettable looks on the red carpet.

Among the trend's fans, Gemma Chan has recently utilized the caped dress in two breathtaking looks as she positively glows in looks by <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/louis-vuitton-artycapucines-bag-collection" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Louis Vuitton</a> and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/angelina-jolie-eternals-marvel-disney-photoshoot-valentino" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Valentino</a> during press for her new movie <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/behind-the-scenes-marvels-eternals-angelina-jolie-superhero-movie" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Eternals</a>.
 In addition to the Chan, names such as <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/anya-taylor-joy-tracee-ellis-ross-eileen-gu-tiffanys-new-brand-ambassadors" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tracee Ellis Ross</a>, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/lorde-style-evolution-solar-power-music" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lorde</a>, and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/promising-young-woman-carey-mulligan-costumes-nancy-steiner-emerald-fennell" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Carey Mulligan</a> have also donned the caped dress trend.
