Never mind the wolf. Little Red’s real challenge was finding the right cape in which to amble through the forest on a crisp fall afternoon.

She would have been enchanted by The Little Hummingbird’s latest collection. The clothes combine fresh silhouettes — wide-leg pants, crop-sleeve tops, and tunics — with familiar fall fabrics like preppy plaid and cozy fleece.

Thoughtful details (contrast seaming, screen-printed woodland creatures, etched wooden buttons) turn playtime staples (cotton tees, pocket hoodies) into statement pieces.

And when the weather changes, swap out the capelet (too drafty) for a hooded parka in gray or red — of course.

Available at thelittlehummingbird.com, $35-$78.
