What is a draped gown?
1 Answer

A draped gown is a single piece of garment that is draped around the body. It is a cutaway or stitched as in a tailored garment. Drape gowns can hold to the body through sashes, pinning, knotting, clasps, belts, tying drawstrings, fibulae, or just friction and gravity.
