Magnetic Closures

Anybody | Posted in Equipment and Supplies on

Could anyone tell me if they know a source for magnetic closures.  I am looking to put such a closure on a cape.  I think that would look better for this style than a button.  Can someone help?  Thanks

    what is the style? capes usually have ties, hooks, or buttons, either decorative or subtle.
    i wouldn't trust a maganetic closure on a cape. if you want invisible, try a concealed large hook and eye. i used to own a vintage opera cape (victorian), and all the closures were the sturdy oversized hooks that are still available. the wire was completely wrapped in durable thread, which gave it a snug feel when latched.
