Couldn't you just adapt an infant towel? or blanket? or this weekend I actually showed dd some scarves I had and they've worked well as a cape, stole, headwrap, peek-a-boo toy and a means of exploring new tactile sensations. (one of them is sort of see through with a pattern)

I bought my son a wonderful purple velour cape from Hearthsong a few years ago. I swear he has spent much of his time from age 3 until 5.5 dressed in that cape (as a superhero, pirate, magician, Jedi, general, etc)! There is a brand called Great Pretenders (I think) that also makes nice quality dress up clothes. Playstore also sells capes. Not sure about the adult- if you sew, I noticed the other day at the fabric store that there are lots of adult and child cape patterns that look pretty easy.
