Hi,
One thing you can do is let it hang on your dress form for about a month or
so, and let it drop. Then you can hem it!

All the extant ones I've seen have been semi-circular, but some of the
ecclesiastical ones are tailored at the shoulder.

Sorry for the cross posts all. I'v just made a middle class full length
full circle cape. Of course over the shoulder the cape length is shorter.
Do most people hem the rest of the cape to match that length or do they
just
do an even hem all 'round and allow it to be longer in front and back?
