Generally, it refers to a long dress or outer garment that is not fastened around the waist. In addition to the evening gown, which is formal attire for women, the bride's wedding gown (also called the bridal gown), and the Rococo-style Watteau gown from the early 18th century, it also includes night gowns and dressing gowns worn over nightgowns, bath gowns for after a bath, hostess gowns worn by the ladies of the household who entertain guests, and princess gowns with princess lines. After the Second World War, short gowns and gowns without sleeves appeared. Also, from the 14th century to around 1560, men wore it over their tunics and hose. It is a long, loose-fitting outer garment with large sleeves. From the mid-16th century onwards, it became a symbol of social status and rank. The term is used to refer to the long, loose outer garments worn by ancient people, such as the French robe, the judge's gown, the academic gown, the Geneva gown (often used as the ceremonial dress of Protestant clergymen), etc., which are mainly black or gray and are still in use today.
