A long thin cloth draped over a hat, worn mainly by women during the Heian and Muromachi periods when traveling. The name "mushi" ("mushi") comes from the fact that the material used to make the tare-goromo was ramie (ramie), a superior material to hemp. Ramie has a nice feel to it, and was widely produced in Japan at the time as a raw material for textiles. Women wore it to hide their faces, and also to avoid dust and pests.

平安~室町時代に主として女性が旅行の際などに用いた,笠のまわりに薄い布を長く垂らしたかぶりもの。虫という名がついたのは,垂衣の原料として大麻より上等のカラムシ (苧麻) が材料に用いられたことからきている。苧麻は感触がよく,当時織物の原料として国内で広く生産されていた。女性がこれを使う目的は,一つには顔を隠すことであり,またほこりや害虫を避けるためであった。 (→被衣〈かつぎ〉 , 壺装束 )
