  Perhaps "dress-like garment" should be the equivalent of "sword-like weapon".

  I&apos;m loving this because in Norwegian, &quot;dress&quot; is a men&apos;s suit, while &quot;kjole&quot; is a woman&apos;s dress.

  While wearing a dress in winter, I’ve had men ask “aren’t you cold?” or “how can you wear that in this weather?” You addressed the answer to that perfectly. A dress traps heat like a tent.

  Fun fact - In German, &apos;dress&apos; translates to &apos;Kleid&apos;, which again must have had unisex roots, as &apos;clothing&apos; is called &apos;Kleidung&apos;.

  Another bit of linguistic evidence is that if you want to translate &quot;dress&quot; into French the word is &quot;robe&quot;.

  Shad Facts: Shad hosts fully participatory live action &nbsp;DnD campaigns for orphaned halflings. For some reason they love his Lord of the Rings Campaigns the most.

  Some of your mystery garments can be explained in the fact (which you did mention in a different context) that many households made their own cloth and clothing. &nbsp;So, someone&apos;s individual clothing appearance would often depend heavily upon the skill and creativity of whoever was making the garments in their house. &nbsp;&quot;What&apos;s that?&quot; &quot;Oh, my tunic? My wife made it for me.&quot; &quot;That&apos;s not a tunic! &nbsp;It&apos;s got a bloody hood!&quot; &nbsp;&quot;Well, I keep misplacing my hats, so she made mine with a hood.&quot;

  I know a guy who frequently wears medieval clothing in his everyday life.<br>He had the clothing originally for larping.<br>Then he found out that those types of clothes are really, freaking, comfortable and practical to wear. And he hasn&apos;t looked back since.
