[[caption-width-right:320:Who wears the evilest collar of them all?]]

->''"I think my favorite part of his costume is his giant, four-foot wingspan, hang-glider collar. Why can't I ever find a lab coat with one of those?"''
-->-- '''[[MadScientist Doctor Insano]]''' of ''WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment'', on ''Film/TheDungeonmaster''

The high, turned-up collar is synonymous not only with {{Classical Movie Vampire}}s, but with ObviouslyEvil villainy in general.

This began when ''Theatre/{{Dracula|1924}}'' was adapted into a stage play, and Creator/BelaLugosi famously played the count wearing an OminousOperaCape with the collar upturned, so that he could just turn around into the shadows, and the collar and [[EvilWearsBlack blackness of the long cape]] made him seem to disappear. When it was made into a film, the effect was redundant, but Lugosi kept the collar of the cape up just for the appearance, and it became iconic.

It's usually paired with a long, flowing cape, but it's not necessary.

Even [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen Evil Queens]] and [[DaddysLittleVillain Daddy's Little Villains]] can wear collars like this, although [[CostumePorn they are sometimes more extravagant]] than when male villains wear them.

Also note that heroes are not excluded from wearing high collars, it's just not a sign of evil when they do it.

A SisterTrope to MysticalHighCollar (and overlaps with mystical villains), OminousOperaCape (and is often paired with this trope, as was codified by Lugosi's performance).

Compare BadassCape, SpikesOfVillainy.

!!Examples:

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:Anime and Manga]]
* UsefulNotes/OdaNobunaga from ''Anime/BattleGirlsTimeParadox'' wore a dark cape with a high collar.
* In ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'', Void has a mantle that includes a high, sinister collar.
* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'':
** Nnoitra has a collar that resembles a spoon. It's easily twice the size of his head.
** Several Stern Ritter have high collars.
* In ''Anime/CasshernSins'', Dio and Leda wear suits with high collars. Casshern does too but is ultimately a subversion, though he was evil in the past.
* Lelouch as Zero wore a cape with a high collar in ''Anime/CodeGeass'', which is an early sign Zero is not the white knight hero Lelouch passes him off as.
* Skull, the leader of the Black Ghost organization, wears one in ''Manga/{{Cyborg 009}}''.
** The Knights of the Round also wear high collars, and they are the elite forces of TheEmpire. Okay, one of the members is a good guy, but the rest count, and this is a BlackAndGrayMorality series.
* Madame Suliman of ''Anime/HowlsMovingCastle'' wears a dress with a [[PrettyInMink fur-trimmed]] high collar. She's more antagonistic than villainous, but still pretty dangerous when the protagonists cross her.
* Houka Inumuta of ''Anime/KillLaKill''. All versions of his stylized uniform feature a high collar that can snap shut in the front, and when he is not speaking his collar covers his mouth. This, along with his StoicSpectacles, gives him an aloof and detached appearance. This is fitting, since he is TheSmartGuy of the team; his greatest weapon is his technological skill, so he sometimes takes the role of NonActionGuy. In his nerdier moments, Inumuta straddles the border between MysticalHighCollar and DorkInASweater.
* Croix Meridies in ''Anime/LittleWitchAcademia2017'' wears a really high collar which seems to just scream her impending antagonist role.
* In ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'', the Akatsuki uniform has a ridiculously high collar. Practically speaking, it might be intended to reduce the ability of people to identify their faces when traveling or serving as mercenaries.
** In particular, Zetsu's [[ManEatingPlant venus flytrap-like covering]] can act as a large, menacing one.
** [[RivalTurnedEvil Sasuke's]] third Part Two outfit has one as well. Considering how almost all of the Uchiha wore high collars, it was not surprising.
* ''Manga/OnePiece'' provides us with Gekko Moriah, who had a [[SpikesOfVillainy spiked high collar]]. Fits very well with his obvious horror theme.
* ''Anime/ScienceNinjaTeamGatchaman'':
** Berg Katse has a nice high and wide collar, with red lining. Some of his captains have high collars as well.
** In ''Gatchaman Fighter'', Egoblosser has a high collar on his nice coat.
* Lord Grandfather, ThePatriarch of the titular ''Manga/ShadowsHouse'' wears the coat with a collar so high, his head is completely obscured.
* Folken of ''Anime/TheVisionOfEscaflowne'' combines this with ShouldersOfDoom and AllEncompassingMantle for the complete villain look.
* ''Anime/VoltesV'': The EvilPrince Heinel's mantle is adorned with mink at every hem except the collar, which fans out around his neck and resemble the points of a snowflake.
* Mushiban, the main villain in the ''Anime/YesPrettyCure5 Go Go!'' movie, wears a cape with a collar like this.
* In ''Manga/ZatchBell'' the main antagonist Zofis wears robe with high collar.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Comic Books]]
* ''ComicBook/TheAvengers:'' The Vision... sort of. His design up until the 2010s includes a large flared collar that goes up to his ears, having started off as a reluctant minion for [[KillerRobot Ultron]] until he turned on him. Evidently Vis just liked the look and kept it, though it does help play into the recurring theme of Vision unintentionally unsettling people.
* ''Franchise/{{Batman}}'':
** ComicBook/RasAlGhul's most common outfit has a high collar. Although he is a terrorist and assassin, he has an air of nobility about him.
** In {{Alternate Continuit|y}}ies and futures where he becomes Batman, Damian Wayne's Batsuit frequently features a high collar, such as in ''Batman: Urban Legends'', ''ComicBook/SuperSons'', and ''VideoGame/Injustice2''. This feature is perhaps a nod to his maternal grandfather, the aforementioned Ra's al Ghul, and to reflect the fact that he tends to exhibit more violent tendencies than his father.
** ''ComicBook/{{Batwoman}}'' has the High Madame, the queen/high priestess/kingpin of the Religion of Crime. Her costume includes a collar with several points that is only slightly shorter than her head in the back
* ''ComicBook/EdgeOfSpiderVerse2022:''
** On first appearance, when she simply seems to be an overly stern mother, Queen Mysteria does not have a collar on her robe. However, when she reveals herself at her ball and that she is TheManBehindTheMan for Bishop Octopus, her outfit suddenly does have a high popped collar. (In case the name wasn't a tip-off that she's her story's version of Mysterio, she's also a CompositeCharacter with the Evil Queen from Disney's ''Snow White''.)
** Meanwhile, Norma the Fairy Gob-Mother is visually based after Maleficent, and comes with a high collared cloak of her own, though she's AmbiguouslyEvil. [[spoiler:Until the follow-up story, when she turns out to have been EvilAllAlong.]]
* ''ComicBook/TheFlash'' villain Weather Wizard.
* ComicStrip/FlashGordon's nemesis, Ming the Merciless, most of the time. It was, of course, carried over into the Film and TV versions.
* ComicBook/{{Morbius}} [[OurVampiresAreDifferent the Living Vampire]] had one when he was introduced as a TragicVillain in the pages of ''Amazing ComicBook/SpiderMan''. Later inverted when he became more of an AntiHero, sometimes a hero outright [[LimitedWardrobe but still wore the same outfit]], with the collar often being drawn even higher and more pronounced than it was in his first appearance.
* ''Franchise/WonderWoman'':
** ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1942'': Pre-Crisis Doctor Cyber wore a purple costume with a standing green collar that was taller than her head. It matched her cape.
** Giganta (Doris Zeul) often wears a popped collar on her costumes, unlike many examples on this page hers seems a bit more feasible since it only reaches just past her jawline.
** Minister Blizzard's blue cape has a collar tall enough to usually cover his ears.

[[folder:Fan Works]]
* ''Fanfic/Plan7Of9FromOuterSpace''. MadScientist Dr Zarkendorf is introduced wearing ''A high fan-like collar that made his [[BaldOfEvil head look like a lunar eclipse]].''

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Films -- Animated]]
* Yzma in ''WesternAnimation/TheEmperorsNewGroove''. The thing was at least a foot tall, going by normal human proporations, towering above the top of her head.
* Concept art for ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'' shows several designs for Elsa [[WhatCouldHaveBeen when she was meant to be a villain]], and she's wearing a high collar.

* Maleficent, the evil fairy, in ''WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty'' wears a black, purple lined cloak with a high collar.
* The Wicked Queen from ''WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs''. Snow White herself wore a high collar with her PimpedOutDress, but it was rounded and shaped in a softer manner, in contrast to the sharp corners and flat shape of the queen's collar.
* Vector in ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe1'' wears a tracksuit with a high collar.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
* Loki sports [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/loki_avengers.jpg one]] in ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}'', which, while relatively subdued, is larger than in ''Thor''.
* The evil wizard Mestema wore one in ''Film/TheDungeonmaster'', that was a bit more wide than high.
* [[TheDragon Zorg]] in ''Film/TheFifthElement'' has a collar so high, it reaches the top of his ears.
* As with the original comic strip version of the character, movie versions of Flash Gordon's nemesis Ming the Merciless very frequently wear these (often very over the top ones), from the ''[[Film/FlashGordonSerial Flash Gordon]]'' serials in the 1930s to Creator/MaxVonSydow's version of the character in the 1980 ''[[Film/FlashGordon1980 Flash Gordon]]'' movie.
* ''Film/ForsakingAllOthers'': Connie shows up to meet her ex-boyfriend Dill on the night before Dill is to be married. Sure enough, she's wearing the popped-up collar. The fact that Connie's an obvious schemer supports this trope. Sure enough, she gets Dill to run away with her, the night before Dill's wedding.
* [[http://cdn1.shocktillyoudrop.com/images/stories/archive/HELLRAISER-REMAKE1SMALL.jpg This]] concept art of Pinhead from the ''Film/{{Hellraiser}}'' remake. Fittingly enough, it makes him look disturbingly like someone in an iron maiden.
* In ''Film/{{Labyrinth}}'', [[Music/DavidBowie Jareth the Goblin King]] has two outfits featuring these -- the shining black one when he first appears, and the red leather jacket with the really high collar when he appears in the tunnels.
* ''Film/{{Legend 1985}}'''s magically animated black dress that Lily dances with features this collar.
* [[http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_GQygw-XI3NQ/TGU9PR22-GI/AAAAAAAABDE/N3AKqdtBP6s/s320/neversaynever8.JPG Fatima Blush]] wears one in the video game scene in the not-so-canon ''Film/JamesBond'' film ''Film/NeverSayNeverAgain''.
* ''Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow'' - Dr. Frank N. Furter first appears sporting one of these, but it disappears pretty quickly.
* In ''Film/TheThirstyDead'', Baru, the high priest of the evil {{cult}}, wears a cape with a collar that is higher than his head.
* ''Film/PlanetOfTheVampires'' (a.k.a. ''Terrore nello spazio''). Not worn by the vampires this time, but as SpaceClothes by the protagonists. It appears the high collar is to maintain an airtight seal between the clothing and a space helmet.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Literature]]
* Scarlett Burnish in ''Literature/TheBoneSeasonSeries'' always wears her significant outfit with high collars. According to Paige Mahoney, they look like a hangman's noose.
* ''Literature/{{Dracula}}'' is the TropeCodifier, if not from the book, than from the aforementioned adaptations.
* A throwaway line in ''[[Literature/TheDraka Drakon]]'' mentions "the high-collared black uniform of war."
* Archlecter Sult in ''Literature/TheFirstLaw'' trilogy wears an immaculate white uniform, of which the high collar is occasionally mentioned.
* Queen Etheldredda's collar in ''Literature/SeptimusHeap'' is so large that it makes her head look like it's stuck at the top of a box, making her look very arrogant and disdainful in the process.
* Emperor Zhark in the ''Literature/ThursdayNext'' series naturally wears one. He once remarks that it is hard to get it properly starched.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
* ''Series/BlakesSeven''. Worn by several characters in the episode "Weapon", [[WTHCostumingDepartment most bizarrely]] by a woman who's supposed to be a slave employed as a menial worker.
* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
** TheMaster not only wears one of these (and regulation evil villain's cloak) in the special [[Recap/DoctorWho20thASTheFiveDoctors "The Five Doctors"]], he appears to obtain it ''while teleporting'' (via a "power-boosted open-ended transmat beam"). Those Time Lords clearly know a thing or two about instantaneous transport ''and'' sartorial elegance, at least when not being played by Colin Baker. (The Master gets his collar back in the TV film, 13 years later).
** Inverted with "normal" Time Lords, who are (sort of) good but whose formal wear comes with [[http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_E7in0m2qpKo/Rsq6uyp5jAI/AAAAAAAAARI/MnhYGb17tS0/s400/_1TimeLordTennant.jpg a truly ridiculous collar]] which is taller than their heads.
** Though by [[spoiler:[[Recap/DoctorWhoS30E17E18TheEndOfTime "The End of Time"]], the trope is in full play, with the Time Lords becoming {{Omnicidal Maniac}}s prepared to destroy the rest of the universe if it means they can survive.]]
** Monarch, the BigBad of "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS19E2FourToDoomsday Four to Doomsday]]", wears green robes with an enormous collar.
* ''Series/ForeverKnight''. Worn by Lucien [=LaCroix=] in flashback scenes along with a black BadassLongcoat. Probably a Creator/BelaLugosi ShoutOut in this VampireDetectiveSeries. In the present day he prefers a BadassLongcoat and [[ManOfWealthAndTaste loses the unfashionable collar]].
* ''Series/GameOfThrones'': Roose Bolton occasionally wears his collar up, most notably at the Red Wedding. Of ''doom'', indeed...
* Lord Fear in ''Series/{{Knightmare}}'' sports a colossal black collar that's higher than his head.
* ''Series/OnceUponATime'' uses this a lot. Almost all of the major villains have worn this at one point or another, but of course, the most iconic is [[http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/villains/images/0/04/Youloveit_ru_odnagdy_v_skazke_regina_kor_31.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140501091800 The Evil Queen]] from Snow White story, a major character. Beyond her, Maleficent, Hook, and the Queen of Hearts all have high collars at one point or another.
* ''Series/SherlockHolmes''. In "The Last Vampyre" John Stockton, who is rumored to be descended from vampires, wears the classic black collared cape. Holmes himself wears one while startling Watson with fake vampire fangs. Watson is not amused; Holmes of course says it's a scientific test to establish the pernicious nature of the vampire legend.
* ''Series/StarTrekVoyager''. Captain Janeway wears an outfit with a spiderweb-style collar when playing intergalactic FemmeFatale Queen Arachnia in "Bride of Chaotica!".

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Professional Wrestling]]
* Wrestling/TheUndertaker sometimes wears this as part of his entrance attire.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
* In ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' sourcebooks, most of the artwork of [[{{Cthulhumanoid}} Illithids]] portrays them wearing these.
* {{Inverted}} on the Gothic-horror-themed plane of Innistrad in ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering''. There the humans wear high collars as a defense against vampires (not to mention the cold). The vampire houses, on the other hand, wear no or low collars, as they have no need to protect their jugulars and are weather-resistant.
* ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer}}'': Von Carstein family of Vampires tend to wear these, exhibiting all the traditional movie vampire aesthetics (although recent models have cut back a bit on this to give them a more heavily armoured, unique look. But Konrad von Carstein's heavy armour still has a high collar of spikes on the back). They are also common among High Elf Mages, Imperial wizards and a few other character types.
* Crops up occasionally in ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'', most commonly with officers in the Imperial Navy.
** In the 40K film ''Film/{{Damnatus}}'', both inquisitor Lessus and his flag captain have one.
** Heavily vampire-themed Blood Angels Chief Librarian Mephiston has a very grand one of these, complete with flowing black cloak. It does, however, act as his psychic hood. And, being a space marine, his is made of metal and has two horned skulls on the points.

[[folder:Video Games]]
* Gravelyn from ''VideoGame/AdventureQuestWorlds''
** Some Heroes can also be this
** The Mirror Realm version of Drakath also has one
* The Dark Queen in ''VideoGame/{{Battletoads}}''.
* Arakhn and her Galaxy soldiers in ''VideoGame/CityOfHeroes'', as well as The Maestro.
* Axel from ''VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories'' has a coat which features a two-pronged collar that reaches well over his head. The reason for this is that, as [[AllThereInTheManual World of Disgaea 2]] shows, the coat is actually a tweaked version of a BadassLongcoat [[WhatCouldHaveBeen originally intended for Laharl to wear in the second game]] -- the pronged collar was [[TheNapoleon one of his attempts to look taller and more intimidating]]. Now even though he's a hero, he's the ''Dark'' Hero, which means using nefarious and/or sneaky ways to win.
* In ''VideoGame/DisneyPrincessEnchantedJourney'', Zara has a blue collar similar to Queen Grimhilde's.
* Inverted with [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyI the Warrior]] in ''VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy'', although some of the showcased villains are also overendowed in the collar department.
* This look is immensely popular combined with a gold studded coat for ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' Villains and minor bosses, particularly in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight'',, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemMysteryOfTheEmblem'', and ''VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar'', seemingly inspired by Zeon in ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam''. There are a few good characters that also have this look, but usually they start out as enemy units before having a HeelFaceTurn.
** {{Subverted}} with [[PlayerCharacter the Avatar]] in ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening Awakening]]'', however, who sports quite a high collar on their cloak but is firmly one of the good guys. [[spoiler: DoubleSubverted because by extension, [[EvilTwin the Hierophant/Grima's human form]] ''also'' has that collar.]]
* Vizier Khilbron of ''VideoGame/GuildWars''.
** And several of the Necromancer armours.

* ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'':
** In ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor'', Grodus wears one on his cape, and [[spoiler:[[BigBad the Shadow Queen]] gives Peach one on her [[PimpedOutDress dress]] as part of the EvilCostumeSwitch when the queen [[DemonicPossession possesses]] [[FightingYourFriend her]].]]
** Count Bleck in ''Videogame/SuperPaperMario'' also has quite a high collar.
** Princess Shroob in ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiPartnersInTime'' wears a pink dress that [[EvilCounterpart looks a lot like Peach's]], except, of course, for a far more pronounced collar.
* [[spoiler: Ghetsis]] rocks this trope in ''VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite''. His signature Pokemon also has a neck frill that resembles a high collar [[spoiler: on all three heads]].
* Miss Marjoly of ''VideoGame/RhapsodyAMusicalAdventure''
* Count Draynor, a [[PhantasySpelling Vampyre]] in ''VideoGame/RuneScape'', has quite an impressive collar.
** [[CastingAShadow Sliske]]'s role as a major villain becomes apparent at the end of "The World Wakes", and he returns as the primarily antagonist in "Missing, Presumed Death", spotting a much larger collar. This lead to a fanart joking that he would have a comically massive collar in the next quest, "Sliske's Engame", which ended up being [[https://twitter.com/runescape/status/674499022980272128 tweeted by the developers]].
* [[http://suelineruff.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/raphael.jpg Raphael]] from ''VideoGame/SoulCalibur'' dons one after becoming vampire-like in 3.
* Ripto, the eponymous villain of ''VideoGame/Spyro2RiptosRage''.
* Queen Catalina, one of the villains in ''{{VideoGame/Trapt}}''.

* Sockarang's collar is [[http://axecop.com/axecopimages/884316_276816462452170_1676828641_o.jpg quite high]] in the Webcomic/AxeCop TV show, yet it was nonexistent on Sockarang's [[http://axecop.com/comic/episode-5/ debut page]] of the webcomic. The collar grew out of nowhere during a seeming FaceHeelTurn in the Moon Warriors arc.
* In ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'', [[WellIntentionedExtremist antagonist]] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach [[http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120723235019/girlgenius/images/thumb/7/71/KlausInDescent.jpg/300px-KlausInDescent.jpg wears collars as high as his ears]].
* [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Jenny Nowhere]]'s royal blue BadassCape in ''Webcomic/JennyAndTheMultiverse'' has one of those.

[[folder:Western Animation]]
* The Queen of the Crowns in ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfTheGalaxyRangers'' has a costume and style that is an homage to them and to Ming the Merciless.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/DaveTheBarbarian'' episode "Sorcerer Material" (where Malsquando is first introduced), Fang deduces that Malsquando is evil because he has a "pointy collar". The Dark Lord Chuckles the Silly Pig also has one.
