The burgundy king child cloak is a burgundy children's cloak with a stand-up collar and front panels of white fabric with black dots. The burgundy fabric has a soft, velvety sheen and falls to about knee height on a child. This way, a boy or girl can dress up as a king or monarch during carnival, in a parade, or at a children's party.
The burgundy king cloak in detail

Why does a king wear a white collar with black dots?
That dotted collar refers to ermine fur, which for centuries formed the lining and the trim of monarch's cloaks: a white winter coat with dark spots. In the world of dressing up, that pattern is the most quickly recognizable sign that someone is playing a king or monarch, even before the crown catches the eye. With this cloak, it is a textile imitation, and precisely that combination of deep burgundy with white makes the difference with a plain costume cape. The latter reads as a vampire, hero, or magician, while this cloak establishes a monarch at a single glance.
A crown and scepter with the burgundy cloak
Add a golden crown and your child's king look is complete in one go. Underneath, dark trousers with boots or neat shoes work well, because the cloak falls open and you can see the clothes underneath. A scepter or a red children's wig with a beard completes the story, and for a parade with three kings or a fairy tale party, a gold-colored belt over a long tunic can be added.
A king cloak for children during carnival
Boys and girls wear this cloak during carnival, in the parade, at a dressing-up afternoon at school, or for a fairy tale or king theme at a children's party. Because it goes over regular clothes and fastens at the neck with Velcro, a child can put it on and take it off themselves. That is handy if it gets warm inside or if the cloak needs to be put aside for playing outside.
Choose this burgundy king cloak and your child will stand as a monarch in the carnival parade.
